Toronto, ON – Brian Moore of Guelph won a $1 million top prize with INSTANT MILLIONAIRE MULTIPLIER (Game #2471).

Brian, who works in the skilled trades, has been a regular lottery player with OLG for decades. He typically plays LOTTO 6/49 and enjoys a variety of INSTANT games. After learning about the odds of winning the top prize, Brian decided to pick up a MILLIONAIRE MULTIPLIER ticket. This spur-of-the-moment decision led him to the OLG Prize Centre to celebrate his first big win!

“I was at home, playing my ticket before I left for work. I checked it on the OLG app and immediately saw the ‘Big Winner’ message on the screen,” Brian recalled, while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his winnings. “Astonishment washed over me. It was an amazing moment.”

“I knew I had to tell my wife right away, but she was still sleeping. I was cool, but shaky as I woke her,” Brian said. “She was so calm as I told her the news. She double-checked my ticket on her phone, and then we celebrated with a big hug and kiss,” Brian smiled, remembering the moment fondly.

“I’m jubilant! I’m so excited and grateful that a win came my way. I believe in doing good for others, and I’ve always wondered if it would come back to me. It’s like they say, ‘What goes around, comes around.’ Maybe it does!” Brian grinned.

Brian shared that traveling with his wife will be a priority. “We’ll take a step back from work to travel. I want to explore Europe, have some wonderful adventures, and make memories together,” he concluded.

MILLIONAIRE MULTIPLIER is available for $100 a play and the top prize is $1 million. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.72.

The winning ticket was purchased at Little Short Stop on Willow Road in Guelph.
