These are Saturday’s Lotto millionaires
– Yes, what is it customary to say then? I have to start by thanking you so much, says the man, who had not followed the Lotto draw on TV.
– I have delivered Lotto for many years, but never won more than NOK 100. This was surprising to say the least, and it was very gratifying, says the westerner.
He says the money will go into the account, and it will trickle down to family members.
He bought the coupon on his mobile phone.
– I didn’t see the draw on TV, but I checked the results in the app. I have to say it was very special and a bit strange to see there was 2.9 million in prize money there. I was so surprised that I could hardly believe it. It’s not every day something like this happens, says the Trønder.
When asked what he will spend the money on, the new Lotto millionaire answers this:
– The first thing I have to do is pay off a loan. In addition, there will be a southern tour, he says.
Haven’t picked up the phone yet.
The man answered the phone rather quickly. He had checked his coupon, and he says it is very special to be a new Lotto millionaire.
– It feels absolutely fantastic. I have a fixed coupon that I have delivered for many years, says the man.
He almost gaped when he saw the sum he had won.
– I don’t know what my first thought was. I was completely shocked, says the man.
He says there will be an ever so small celebration on Saturday night.
– It will be. As for the winnings, the first thing I will do is give something to my children, says the man.
He bought the coupon on his mobile phone.
The very latest Lotto millionaire from Røros had followed the TV broadcast from the armchair at home in the living room.
– It was a bit strange to see that I have become a Lotto millionaire. I really have to say that. It’s great fun, because I’ve never been particularly lucky to win, says the woman happily.
She has already given some thought to what some of the money will be used for.
– We are very happy to drive around a bit, so it probably costs a few kroner, says the woman.
She bought the coupon at Coop Mega Røros.
New opportunities
Next Saturday, the stage is set for another Lotto draw. Then it is approx. NOK 14 million in the first prize pool.
Good luck!
Chance of winning Lotto
To win first prize in Lotto, the player must have 7 correct winning numbers out of 34 possible. This means that if you play one row, the theoretical probability of getting 7 straight is 1:5.37 million per row (rounded up to 1:5.4 million per row). In other words: There are 5.4 million possible combinations of 7 numbers when you subtract 7 from the 34 numbers. Statistically speaking, you win a prize with 4 straight or better on average on every fifth coupon in five rows.
