A man from Berridale in the Snowy Mountains is celebrating a life-changing win after claiming a $1.2 million jackpot in the Lotto, marking his first significant win in over a decade of playing.
The lucky winner, who had regularly participated in the lottery for around ten years, expressed his excitement over the substantial payout. He shared that his previous wins had been modest, typically amounting to no more than $30, which was just enough to fund his next ticket. This recent success has thrilled him and he plans to use the winnings to pay off his mortgage.
In the Saturday Lotto draw number 4561, held on 5 April 2025, the winning numbers were 3, 42, 43, 10, 27, and 23, along with supplementary numbers 6 and 18.
