Cork Lotto Player Pockets €16,500 From €0.50 Flutter

One Cork punter is getting the celebrations underway following an incredible coup in Tuesday night’s EuroMillions draw.

The punter placed a simple €0.50 bet in one of our Cork stores on Tuesday, picking four numbers to be drawn in the EuroMillons Plus draw later that day.

They faced huge chances of 33,000/1 for numbers 3, 4, 22 and 43 to roll out but those odds soon started to dwindle as the balls rolled out.

When all four numbers dropped, the bet clicked, beating the mammoth odds and allowing the customer to return to the shop and exchange their betslip for a stunning five-figure sum of money.

With the stake returned, they walked away with a grand total of €16,500.50.

We offer huge congratulations to the punter in Cork who has proved that you don’t have to bet big to win big. Their loose change transformed into a staggering sum of money in the blink of an eye and we hope they enjoy treating themselves with their new found fortune.
