A syndicate from Laois were celebrating as they collected a massive €200,000 lotto win in Dublin. 

The jubilant syndicate were celebrating their €200,000 win on a €10 All Cash Spectacular scratch card. 

The winning scratch card was purchased at Breslin’s SuperValu store in Abbeyleix.

Celebrations continued at Lotto HQ in Dublin as a second syndicate from Dublin claimed their prize. 

The biggest winners of the day was a syndicate comprised of a group of friends from Dublin who won Wednesday’s Lotto Match 5 + Bonus prize which was worth an incredible €364,219. 

The syndicate, which is headed up by a retired professional soldier, relived the excitement they experienced when they found out about their huge win late on Wednesday night. 

“You will never meet a more deserving group of people to win a prize like this and I’m thrilled for the group,” said the head of the syndicate. 

“I organise the Lotto tickets through my online lottery account and shortly after the draw, I received an email from the National Lottery telling me that I had some good news about my ticket. I didn’t get too carried away at first but once I opened the email and seen that the prize was worth over €350,000 – I was in complete shock!

I knew they wouldn’t believe me at first so I took a picture of the screen on my phone and dropped it straight into the WhatsApp group so that they could share in the excitement straight away,” he said.
