In addition to the fabulous category I prize, the lucky ticket holder also collected 20 other category IV winnings, making him a real multiple winner, with a total amount won of 9,646,732.64 lei.
The lucky ticket was purchased at the agency 72-003 in sector 2, Bucharest, and was completed with a reduced scheme code 57, comprising 22 variants of Loto 6/49, with a cost of 154.50 lei. A modest investment, but one that brought with it a huge reward.
A hopeful message
“Keep playing! Keep hoping!” – is the optimistic exhortation that the winner wanted to convey to all those who bet on the luck of the lotto. He fondly recalls how he stayed true to the game for 15 years and always kept hoping, exploring simple variations and reduced schemes. All until, finally, fate smiled on him.
The winner prefers to remain anonymous and quietly enjoy his big win. However, the message he sent could represent a ray of hope for all those who dream of one day getting their hands on the big pot.
