Ricardo Rosa of Melancthon matched the last six of seven ENCORE numbers in exact order in the Aug. 1 LOTTO MAX draw to win the six figure cash prize. “Ricardo, a maintenance manager, has been a loyal lottery player with OLG for decades. He enjoys playing LOTTO MAX and LOTTO 6/49, using OLG's Quick Pick feature to make his selections and always adding ENCORE to his tickets,” said OLG in a press release on Sept. 25.  Now, 56-year-old Rosa is thrilled to share the story of his first big win. “I went to the store to buy water and decided to pick up a ticket,” Rosa recalled, while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to claim his winnings. “After the draw, I checked it and realized it was a winner. I was so shocked — I couldn't believe it! When it finally sank in, it was very exciting.” Ricardo revealed the incredible news to his family.  “They were stunned,” he said with a smile. “Everyone's very happy.” With his windfall, he plans to pay off some bills, share with his family, and treat himself to something special.  Rosa's winning ticket was purchased at Circle K on Main Street East in Shelburne. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2025-10-02 15:36:53 Post date GMT: 2025-10-02 19:36:53 Post modified date: 2025-10-02 15:36:54 Post modified date GMT: 2025-10-02 19:36:54 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
