Lucky Dublin punter pockets €19k after overcoming 3,800/1 odds on €5 bet

A lucky Dublin punter is certainly celebrating this week after overcoming amazing odds.

Rather than play the Lotto, they placed a bet on what four numbers drawn for the Lotto Plus 2 draw on Wednesday evening would be.

They placed a €5 accumulator and beat the 3,800/1 odds - walking away with a €19,005 windfall!

The numbers chosen were 6, 20, 29, and 37, and it looked good as the first three numbers drawn included them.

Finally when number 29 dropped, the lucky Dublin native had reason to celebrate.

Lawrence Lyons from Boylesports said: “We tip our hats to the customer in Dublin who took us for such a big amount from only €5.

"They’ll remember that evening for some time to come and we hope they enjoy splashing out with their windfall.”
