LONDON RESIDENT WINS $250,000 WITH INSTANT DIAMOND CLUB
TORONTO, ON – David Cornell of London is $250,000 richer after winning with INSTANT DIAMOND CLUB (Game #2328).
David, 37, said he was drawn to purchase this ticket because of the size of it. “I thought you must win big with a ticket this big!” he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his winnings.
The construction worker said he discovered his win in the most “Canadian” way possible – having a coffee at a beloved Canadian hotspot. “My wife and I were at Tim Hortons having coffee and playing our tickets – that’s when I discovered my win,” he said. “We were both shocked. We didn’t think it was real until I scanned it on the OLG App.”
David said his win feels fantastic and surreal. “I always told my wife that I used up all my luck on her,” he laughed. “But now, I can say I was lucky enough to win! It’s overwhelming in the most exciting way!”
He is considering a vacation with his wife and will invest the rest of his winnings.
INSTANT DIAMOND CLUB is available for $20 and the top prize is $250,000. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.64. Visit the INSTANT page on OLG.ca for more information on this and other great games.
