CRYSLER RESIDENT CELEBRATES $1 MILLION ENCORE WIN

TORONTO, ON – Saying “yes” to ENCORE paid off for Suzanne Cayer of Crysler. She matched all seven ENCORE numbers in exact order in the September 10, 2025 LOTTO 6/49 draw to win $1 million!

Suzanne, a married mother of two and grandmother of three, has been playing the lottery with OLG for years. “I really enjoy it. I play LOTTO 6/49 and LOTTO MAX with ENCORE,” she shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect her winnings. Now, Suzanne is excited to share the story of her first big win!

The 63-year-old said she was half asleep when she decided to check her ticket. “As soon as I saw the big win, I instantly became wide awake,” she laughed. “I was stunned! I changed my clothes and ran to the closest store to double-check my ticket.”

“This is incredible,” Suzanne continued. “When I found out I had won $1 million, tears ran down my face. I’m just so happy and grateful, and my family is thrilled for me.”

With her winnings, Suzanne plans to help pay off her son’s mortgage and treat herself to something special. “I can’t wait to go shopping,” she beamed. “I plan to live life and fully enjoy it!”

When asked what it’s like to win the lottery, Suzanne said, “I’m on cloud nine. I feel like a million bucks!”

ENCORE offers 22 ways to win and can be played in conjunction with most lottery games for an extra $1. There are two ENCORE draws every day.

The winning ticket was purchased at Giant Tiger on Racine Street in Casselman.
