A Labrador woman has confessed she feels like her late mother is winking down at her after scoring $100,000 in yesterday's Lucky Lotteries draw.
The Gold Coast woman scored the 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 11079, drawn Thursday 11 June 2026 and pocketed $100,000.
When we called with the thrilling news, the grateful winner couldn't help but giggle, saying the moment felt like a tribute from her beloved mum.
"I just sat down with a cup of tea. I can't believe this. This is amazing!" she said.
"Oh my goodness. You have no idea what this'll do for me.
"I'll tell you a little story. My mum loved playing lotteries and she always thought she'd win one day. She's passed now but I think she made this happen. What a darling!
"I've been playing since she passed because she honestly just loved it so much.
"For every birthday she had, we would buy her tickets and she'd often ring me of a night if she fell asleep during the draw to ask me what the numbers were.
"She'd diligently tick them off. Then she'd go 'Nothing this time but one day I'll win'. I definitely see this as a little wink from her.
"Thank you so much. One hundred thousand dollars is astronomical.
"I'll be able to do so many things. I've been wanting to go overseas too."
Her entry of two random numbers was purchased via The Lott app - the official home of Australia's lotteries.
