TORONTO, ON – Bernard Williams of Fort Erie is $1 million richer after winning a top prize with INSTANT IN THE MONEY MULTIPLIER (Game #2207).

“When I realized I won, I had to call my wife over to triple check my ticket,” Bernard recalled while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect his winnings.

The retiree only shared the news with his wife and daughter, both of whom were thrilled. “They didn’t believe me at first,” he said with a chuckle.

“I’m incredibly grateful for this win,” Bernard added. “It’s just a wonderful feeling.”
