Saying “yes” to ENCORE paid off for Samantha and Lincoln Marriner of Barrie. They matched the last six of seven ENCORE numbers in exact order in the Nov. 1, 2022 LOTTO MAX draw to win $100,000!
Samantha and Lincoln, a married couple, said this is their biggest win. "We were in shock and disbelief. We had to check the ticket several times to make sure it's real," shared Samantha while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up their winnings.
Samantha and Lincoln told their kids about their big win first, and they didn't believe them. "They thought it was a joke!" she said.
They plan to put their win toward finishing their basement and will save the rest.
ENCORE offers 22 ways to win and can be played in conjunction with most lottery games for an extra $1. There is an ENCORE draw every day.
