Laois person wins €100,000 in online National Lottery game
A lucky Laois person has won a cool €100,000 in the National Lottery.

The player was playing an online gambling game called Relic Fortunes, which costs €5 to enter.
The unnamed Laois person won the maximum prize in the game, which is similar to scratching a scratch card to reveal matching symbols.
