Special number series helps woman win 34 billion VND jackpot

The Illinois State Lottery has just announced the winner of the Lucky Day Lotto on March 6. Accordingly, this person won the jackpot of 1.4 million USD (more than 34 billion VND) thanks to the series of numbers that are the birth dates of his children.

The winner, dubbed publicly by the lottery company as the "lucky mum", discovered she had won a fortune when her baby woke up crying in the middle of the night.

“My baby woke up crying. After I put him back to bed, I had a hard time falling back asleep. So, to kill time, I opened the lottery app on my phone and couldn’t believe I had won $1.4 million,” said the lucky lottery ticket owner.

“I used my children’s birthdays as my lucky numbers. I have the best job in the world : I’m a housewife, and I feel very lucky where I am in life. But today, the word ‘lucky’ takes on a whole new meaning,” the woman confided.

The Illinois Lottery said the winning numbers for the $1.4 million jackpot were 6, 8, 16, 17 and 20. This is an Illinois-only lottery that is drawn twice daily.

"Nearly 550,000 winning Lucky Day tickets were sold this month, with a total prize pool of more than $3 million awarded to Illinois Lottery players," the company said.
