A young Cranbourne teacher’s morning tea duty took an unexpected turn when we rang and revealed he’d chalked up a $200,000 win in yesterday’s Lucky Lotteries draw.
 
The Melburnian held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1765, drawn Monday 8 February 2026. He looks forward to a total prize of $200,000.
 
“Holy sh*t! Oh wow!” he gasped when we confirmed his prize.
 
“The news has got my head spinning.
 
“I’m a teacher and $200,000 is just life-changing for me.
 
“I was just about to head out on my morning tea duty. I can’t believe it.

“I’ve been playing Lucky Lotteries on and off for a couple years now and this is just incredible.”

With $200,000 soon to boost his bank account, the gleeful educator shared the prize would go towards a family holiday and buying his first property.
 
“Well, my family has been talking about doing a big holiday together, so I might be able to surprise a few of them and have their airfares covered,” he said.
 
“It will also be a huge step towards property ownership for me. 
 
“I can’t thank you enough.”
 
His winning entry of seven random numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
