Toronto, ON – Judith (Judy) and David (Dave) Burrows of Trenton are celebrating after winning $550,000 with THE BIGGER SPIN INSTANT game (Game #3154).

Judy and Dave, married parents of one and grandparents of three, have been playing the lottery with OLG weekly for about a decade. They enjoy playing jackpot games like LOTTO MAX, LOTTO 6/49, ONTARIO 49, and LOTTARIO, as well as a variety of INSTANT games. The couple is thrilled to share the news of their first big win, courtesy of THE BIGGER SPIN!

“We were at home when I played our ticket,” Judy recalled, as she and Dave visited the OLG Prize Centre to spin THE BIGGER SPIN Wheel. “I saw that we’d won a SPIN prize and was a little confused as to what that meant. Dave and I headed to the store right away to find out what the prize was.”

“When the retailer scanned our ticket and we won a BIGGER SPIN, I was in shock!” said Judy. “Dave was waiting in the truck, so I quickly ran out of the store to get him.”

“Judy always wins Free Plays and $20 here and there, but when I saw her come out of the store and wave me in, I knew it was going to be good,” Dave laughed.

“Immediately after leaving the store, we called our son to tell him about our win. At first, he was leery, asking, ‘Are you sure this is real?’ After recounting our in-store experience, we were able to ease his mind, assuring him that we’d really won what was sure to be a life-changing prize,” they smiled.

The time soon came for Judy and Dave to spin THE BIGGER SPIN Wheel! Filled with nervous excitement, they spun their way to $550,000! “It’s just awesome,” Dave smiled. “What an amazing feeling,” Judy beamed.

When asked what comes next, Dave and Judy shared their plans to buy a new barbeque and share some of their winnings with their son.

THE BIGGER SPIN INSTANT game is an exciting $10 game that combines popular scratch play with prizes revealed in-store by an animated spinning wheel on the lottery terminal screen and potentially, an in-person spin on THE BIGGER SPIN Wheel at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto.

THE BIGGER SPIN INSTANT game has three fun ways to win:

1. SCRATCH – To win an instant cash prize of $10 to $150,000 or a SPIN prize.
2. WATCH – If the prize won is SPIN, visit any OLG retail location to validate the ticket and watch the animated wheel spin on the lottery terminal screen. Every “SPIN” is a guaranteed win! SPIN prizes range from $20 to $150,000 or a BIGGER SPIN.
3. SPIN – If the animated wheel stops on “BIGGER SPIN,” the prize won is an actual spin on THE BIGGER SPIN Wheel at the OLG Prize Centre for a guaranteed prize of $500,000 to $1 million!

The winning ticket was purchased at Canadian Tire Gas+ on Centre Street North in Napanee.

OLG supports safe play and wants to keep the fun in the game. That’s why OLG is proud to be a leader in promoting responsible gambling with our globally recognized PlaySmart program.
