KUALA LUMPUR: A technician in his 30s, who works in the Klang Valley, has won RM11.66mil in his first attempt at the Power Toto 6/55 lotto game on Aug 25 with the numbers 12, 16, 28, 39, 40 and 47.
Although he regularly plays various Toto games, the winner’s lucky try on Power Toto 6/55 was his first, said Toto in a media statement.
When he realised that he had the winning set of numbers, the technician called his mother to share the good news and had to take sleeping pills on the night of the draw.
He went with a friend to claim his winnings at the Sports Toto’s head office here. The man seemed to have gotten over the shock of winning a multi-million jackpot and seemed unfazed about managing his new-found fortune.
He said that he has always invested in shares and unit trust funds and would now buy properties besides purchasing a house for himself and each of his family members.
The latest record winnings came less than two weeks after a RM5.89mil jackpot was won.
On Aug 14, a security officer from Johor won the money in the Mega Toto 6/52 lotto game through a set of numbers derived from observing number plates of moving vehicles or boats which he records as a pastime.
The latest win means that Toto jackpots have paid a total of RM17.55mil to two winners in less than two weeks.
