First Time Dutch Player Wins $15,000 Mega Millions Prize with TheLotter

One lucky player from Amsterdam won $15,000 playing Mega Millions with TheLotter! Believe it or not: it was his first time playing the lottery with TheLotter! Make sure to read on, because there’s plenty more to this incredible story that we are happy to share with you, however, to safeguard his anonymity, for now we’ll call our lucky winner K.

He Switched to TheLotter and Won Immediately

K. could not have known it at the time, but simply finding TheLotter was his first step in his incredible journey to a lottery win! He explains what led him to TheLotter in the first place:

“I’m playing the Dutch lottery (Staatsloterij) for a long time without ever winning anything so I said – let me have a look at what is possible internationally and especially in the US.”

It certainly is a good thing that K. looked beyond Holland for lottery success. Once he landed at TheLotter, he was off and running! On his very first try, K. matched four numbers plus the bonus number to win Mega Millions’ 3rd prize!

Lucky Numbers, Lucky Thinking

K.’s winning entry is shown on the left. As you can see, he correctly chose 4 out of 5 numbers plus the Megaball in draw 2017/49 that took place on 20 June 2017. K.’s winning numbers were 2, 15, 49, 63, and Megaball 3. The jackpot winning numbers were 2,15, 41,49, 63, and Megaball 3. There were no jackpot winners, two second prize winners, and 20 third prize winners, including K.!

K. laughed when we asked him how he got so lucky and chalked it up to, ‘perhaps a little magic.’ His wins were boosted based on his decision to add the Megaplier to his Mega Millions entry, multiplying his third prize from $5,000 to a very respectable $15,000!

Anyone Could Get Lucky

It’s easy to look at K.’s story and only see the story of a very lucky player who found success on his first try. But, that way, we’re missing the most important details of K.’s story!

K.’s story is actually one of action and initiative. Fed up with not winning at home in Holland, he went online to TheLotter to play bigger lotteries in the US.

Once K. arrived to TheLotter, he made sure that if he would win a prize he would win every single dollar available by adding the Megaplier to his Mega Millions entry.

K. got very lucky and you could be lucky as well! Play Mega Millions, or Powerball, or any other lottery that calls your name, and don’t forget to add the multiplier, if available! Luck can find you, just make sure you’re prepared!
