Lotto - Has anyone won anything substantial?

[woodland]

Has anyone on this forum won anything from the lotto ?

[Hidden Python]

If you have a great session with a W/L, don’t get caught by your misses, stay STI free, than its like winning the lottery,
Because every time you punt you are taking a risk.

[Costy]

I won $45 on the recent powerball draw.

[11Bravo]

Yes, the value of statistics and probability knowledge in real life.

[ThunderPunter]

I wish i won, havent had a punt in a while between a missus and a tight wallet

[ditchtheboss]

A few years ago I won a Division 2. Not life changing but very nice.

[ryanpumper]

How much you get?

[Timeis629]

Fuck no …. never

[ditchtheboss]

How much you get?

It varies but it was for me mid 100s

[frisson]

I avoid lotteries, casinos, poker machines and sports betting, always and forever, for the same reason

They are there to make someone else rich, definitely not the dumb mug punter

The mug punter is a perennial sucker, generally the person who can afford a loss, the least. How much can you afford to lose?

I can afford to loose the money I use to punt and whatever lottery ticket I buy from time to time.

[HardCore]

First scratchie I even bought was $1 and I won $100. Since then its downhill.

[kingwally]

Last week I won $36 in the Powerball, last year I won $3831 on Powerball , and about 6 years ago I won $9364 in Powerball as well. Plenty of other times I have got nothing.

[Ziggurat]

I'm not gambler but at 200m I might throw some bone knuckles down to get some numbers. :big_smile:

[woodland]

I've never had any luck in lotto. Good to see that at least a few you guys got some decent winnings

[Radoush]

Father's friend won lotto twice in one year

[Scooty]

$175, punted everytime it's was a prizepool >$50mil

[Athena]

Father's friend won lotto twice in one year

Do you let him CIM?

[Big boneR]

$12.50 on a $2 bet, is that considered substantial?

[GoldfishMan]

Biggest win for me was close to $8k on a powerhit system 8 (?) a couple of years ago. I also won close to 4k on a regular Oz lotto game many years ago. There was no online stuff back then so they sent me a cheque, lol...

The worst thing about winning something bigger on lotto is knowing that you came very close to winning the big one but missed out!

[DATY]

I found a hot poker player and I backed him. Consequently I’m ahead in money and have stopped gambling. Now the only risk I take is falling in love but thankfully I hear enough bad luck stories of that genre to not roll that dice.

[woodland]

[Athena]

Thanks - I will clear my inbox

What were the recommendations?

[schloong]

I don't touch the pokies & rarely gamble at all these days, except for an occasional hit on Keno or a few lottery tickets every now & then. My biggest win ever was on Keno & a whole $125. Woopeee!

[woodland]

What were the recommendations?

Top secret punting recommendations

Top secret punting recommendations

You sent that to a woman?

[Stubbies4Lyf]

Playing lotto is just like punting - but with virtually no chance of a successful outcome.

Save up those lotto tickets and treat yourself to a nice massage instead.

[jenlai29]

I would consider a majority of my punts are substantial! But hoping the 200 Million this thursday is good!

[Sibon]

Once I won enough Lotto to buy a small massage parlour in a run-down back lane of an inner surburb. My clients were mainly blue collar tradies having a quickie on their way home to their dear wives and kids.

The girls were mainly 40 years old Milfs and spoke no English. I was the only one who read Milton, Orwell, DH Lawrence etc.

Eventually I sold it for a song to go to Uni to study English Literature.

[OnOnOnOn]

Spent 6 and won 12 in the most recent powerball.

[DATY]

I won a pearl necklace and then gave it to my GF.

I thought the Judges disqualified Little Milton in a last minute rumpus? :question:

[faruk]

It varies but it was for me mid 100s

Did you do anything to celebrate?

Most I've won is a few hundred dollars. The guy at the newsagent made it sound like it was the jackpot.

You live in a fantasy land.

[snapjaw]

Won about $400 once off a ozlotto system 8. Otherwise nothing mentionable.

[luckyluke]

$25k on a scratchie. no idea how much i have spent on scratchies over the years but the next $25k could be one scratch away :P

[dotcumdotinyou]

Hey sibon

Hope you had your weetbix kid

[ColesBag]

Won a five figure sum off a 5 dollar lottery ticket pre covid. That's about it really.

[woodland]

Colesbag that’s impressive! You are LVbag now

[OnOnOnOn]

Spent the $12 I won on the previous powerball on the $200m powerball and won $12.50. Getting better!

Noice, getting to $200m, 50c at a time.

[BearOrigin]

Can't remember which Lotto game it was but I won roughly $25.

In my next life I'll come back as a rich eshay.
