KANATA RESIDENT WINS $1 MILLION TOP PRIZE WITH INSTANT X
TORONTO, ON – Robert Hayter of Kanata is $1 million richer after winning the top prize with INSTANT X (Game #2202).
Robert, a computer engineer, says his favourite lottery games are LOTTARIO and INSTANT tickets. "This is my first big win," he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto.
The 54-year-old says it’s his morning routine to scratch his ticket while drinking his coffee. "I was looking over my ticket when I thought, ‘Is this a $100,000 prize?’ I'm a very skeptical person. I thought, 'What are the odds of me winning $1 million?' But it was true… I won $1 million!"
Robert plans to invest his win for the future and purchase a new laptop. "I might also order some books to read," he concluded.
INSTANT X is available for $10 and the top prize is $1 million. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.56. Visit the INSTANT page on OLG.ca for more information on this and other great games.
