Toronto, ON – Kevin Bezhani of Oshawa can realize his dreams after winning a $333,333.40 MAXMILLIONS prize in the December 19, 2025 LOTTO MAX draw. His ticket was one of three that split a $1 million MAXMILLIONS prize, with each winner receiving $333,333.40.

Kevin, a 27-year-old construction worker, said he’s been playing the lottery with OLG on and off for a few years, and LOTTO MAX is his go-to game. “I noticed the jackpot was large and I wanted a chance to win, so I thought, ‘Why not buy a ticket?’” he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect his windfall.

The next day, Kevin checked his ticket using the OLG app on his phone and discovered his big win. “I was in shock and couldn't believe it,” he recalled. “I had to check it a few times to make sure I was seeing things correctly!”

The first person Kevin shared the news with was his dad. “I walked over to him and scanned the ticket using the OLG app on his phone to make sure it wasn’t a glitch on my end. He was so happy and excited for me.”

With his winnings, Kevin will look into purchasing a home, add to his savings, and enjoy life.

“It’s a great feeling to win. It still feels a bit surreal!” he concluded.
