A stroke of luck has turned one Irish Lotto player’s life upside-down as they wake up €500,000 richer after a remarkable win in the EuroMillions Plus draw on Tuesday night. The victorious Lotto player from Kildare clinched this staggering prize by matching five numbers in the latest draw, marking an unforgettable night for the player.
This significant win underscores the transformative potential of the EuroMillions game, which, apart from doling out life-altering sums, also contributes to good causes within the community. The lucky Kildare resident now has a window of 90 days to claim their substantial prize. Failing to do so will result in the unclaimed amount being redirected to enhance the funds raised for charitable purposes, benefiting numerous societal initiatives.
Lotto officials are now urging EuroMillions enthusiasts in the Kildare area to check their tickets meticulously to see if they represent the golden numbers of the night: 9, 17, 20, 36, and 41. This draw, while not producing a winner for the astronomical EuroMillions jackpot of €47,755,445, still proved fortunate for many. More than 34,000 players across Ireland celebrated varying degrees of success in both the EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games on that fateful evening.
Among these jubilant winners, some walked away with €5,000 courtesy of the Ireland Only Raffle. This raffle is a unique initiative specifically tailored for Irish players, guaranteeing ten individuals a four-figure reward, provided they hold the correct raffle number. Additionally, other players secured smaller yet delightful prizes ranging from €5 up to €131, showing that the thrill of participation can reward in multiple ways.
As the nation celebrates Kildare’s latest big winner, it’s worth noting that this victory comes hot on the heels of another recent win. Just last Friday, a Dublin-based player captured the €500,000 top prize in the EuroMillions Plus draw, further amplifying the festive spirit surrounding the lottery.
The fortunate Dublin winner’s Quick Pick ticket, an often favored choice for many lottery players for its randomness, brought home the grand prize. They purchased their lucky ticket on the day of the draw from Tesco Ireland located at Clonsilla, Roselawn, in Dublin 15.
. The winning numbers for their draw were 31, 37, 38, 39, and 48 — numbers that, without a doubt, will forever be etched in their memory.
With such significant winnings at stake, lottery authorities advise all winners to adopt a few prudent steps immediately after confirming their win. The recommended measures include signing the back of the winning ticket and storing it safely to prevent any misplacement or potential disputes. Winners are then encouraged to reach out to the National Lottery’s prize claims team at their dedicated helpline, 1800 666 222, or via email at [email protected]. The team will guide the winners through the secure processes required to claim their prize in person at the Lotto headquarters.
