THIS IS A WINNING TICKET
I had a feeling that I was going to get lucky yesterday so I went to the SS2 Magnum 4D outlet where I usually have my lunch and got some lottery tickets. I checked at night during dinner and thought I didn’t win but when I went back home and looked at the ticket – it was indeed a winning number! 🙂
My number is 8179
I have *never* won Magnum 4D before.
It came out as a Special Prize (RM 180) and I bought RM 3 of that number so I thought I won around RM 600 as I posted it up on the sixthseal.com Facebook page last night.
I just cashed it in and it seems like the Jackpot 4 prize is much larger than I thought. I read it was just RM 68 but when the payout ticket came out it’s RM 68 (Jackpot 4 bonus) x RM 2 (Jackpot minimum bet) x RM 3 (amount bet) = RM 408.
Thus RM 540 (RM 180 Special Prize) + RM 408 (Jackpot bonus) = RM 948.
8179 is a concatenation of a family number: 19(81) + 19(79).
The first is my year of birth and the other is the year my only other sibling – my sister – was born.
It’s a small win but I’m quite happy coz I’ve successfully beaten the insane odds. I’ve also had a winning Sports Toto ticket before and stopped buying after that.
Here’s a cheesy shot of me in recognition of the original one from 2006. (see the Sports Toto link from my post back then)
I had hoped to win a couple million from the Jackpot and send my mom and dad for a vacation to the States or Europe and get my mom better treatment but there are no shortcuts in life.
I am officially stopping any further bets from Magnum 4D since I just want to buck the odds. I used to occasionally get the tickets but seriously, the odds are just not there. I’m glad I finally beat it. It’s not much but it’s a bonus Chinese New Year ang pow. 🙂
So glad that you got an unexpected windfall. Hope this is an indication of a really awesome year ahead for you. Cheers!
Yeah, it’s quite unexpected! I’m really glad it happened though, the odds are INCREDIBLE. 🙂
Thanks for the kind wishes!
See ya back home buddy! 😀
That is good bro..
2013 is a good year for you…
last year wasn’t a good year for me on lottery….
so hope that year of water snake will be a HUAT year for you…..
Thanks bro! 🙂
Yeah, I hear it’s good for Roosters from 1981, maybe it will be a good year after all.
Likewise buddy! Wish you all the best in 2013! HUAT AH! 😀
wow, congrats! can belanja makan durian liao~ haha~
Haha! Yeah, it was surprising.
It’s not the amount but more of the fact that I’ve *never* won 4D before (only Toto). The odds are incredibly stacked against you.
My friend won TODAY on 1221. Guess we’re both lucky. 🙂
Wow! Congrats! It’s indeed a great year for you! 😉
Thanks mate! 🙂
Heh! Yeah, I hear it’s a good year for Roosters of 1981.
Cheers bro!
Congrats again bro for the CNY ang pow. Hope 2013 would be a great year for you and your family!
Thanks Andrew! 🙂
Yeah, I was surprised by the odds too!
Likewise buddy! I hope 2013 will be an awesome year for you and your family! 😀
Super congratulation to you! What a great start for the year for you and I am sure there will be more CHOI coming to you. Happy!
Thanks Nick! 😀
I sure hope so, it’s turning out to be a good year so far.
Cheers for the well wishes! Let there be more Choi and Fatt to you too bro!
Hey there, HB!
A big congratulations to you at winning the 4D! Hopefully, it’s a prosperous sign for you in the Snake Year.
Hello Ciana! 😀
Yeah, imagine the odds! I’ve never won 4D before.
It’s supposed to be a good year for Roosters and I handled a snake during the long weekend.
Best wishes to you in the upcoming year too! 😉
Hey congrats on the win……I’ve won second prize on magnum once and two times on special and it’s the best feeling ever. Been a bit slow lately so I”m hoping 2013 will bring better luck. You obviously have had a good start in the Snake Year 🙂
Thanks Cas! 🙂
I’ve never won the Top 3 and I have a close friend who won 3 TIMES IN A ROW!!!!!
I cannot believe something like that happens. How can you win so many times in a row?
The odds are *infinitisimal* (okay, there’s no such word).
Yet, she did it.
Thus, I experimented with her and what do you know, I won Special Prize again. What are the odds?
I hope you have a great year once CNY comes along Cas! All the best! 😀
