Lucky Offaly punter five figure big win off multiple Lotto bets
An Offaly punter is celebrating a huge cash haul this week following a flutter on some lucky Lotto numbers that paid off in spectacular style.
The anonymous customer struck two bets in the county, picking four numbers to be drawn in Wednesday afternoon’s Daily Millions draw.
They faced odds of 3,750/1 for numbers 4, 8, 9 and 11 to be drawn from the main six numbers, but also invested €10 on the same four to be drawn with the bonus ball as a backup at 1,600/1.
But all four rolled out within the main six, meaning both bets landed in the blink of an eye.
With mammoth returns of €16,010 and €11,253 from the two wagers, the punter walked away richer to the tune of €27,263.
