Dad wins life-changing AU$1.6 million jackpot from TattsLotto draw
In a surprising turn of events, a hardworking father from Prahran, a suburban gem in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, has won a life-changing AU$1.6 million in the TattsLotto draw 4597. The fortunate winner is one of four lucky souls who each took home a prize of AU$1,668,614.99.
The man, who admitted to being an occasional lottery player, purchased his winning 50-game QuickPick entry via The Lott's official website. The win is one of four division one winning entries from the popular game's draw, which took place on Saturday, August 9, 2025, at 7:30 PM AEST.
Upon learning of his win, the man was initially in disbelief. When contacted by a lottery official about the big prize, he hung up the phone. However, after confirming the news, the winner expressed his gratitude, stating that this win has come at a perfect time.
To win a division one prize, players need to match all six winning numbers in a single game panel. The winning numbers from the game's draw were 45, 4, 10, 40, 41, and 14, with supplementary numbers 3 and 6. The odds of winning a division one prize based on one standard game are 1 in 8,145,060.
Winning a division two prize by matching five winning numbers and one supplementary number offers odds of 1 in 678,755. Unfortunately, there is no information available about the hardworking father's specific winning numbers.
The Prahran dad has already outlined his plans for the fortune. Some money will go towards his children's school fees, while he also plans to buy a new car and go on a well-deserved vacation.
Interestingly, the other three division one winning entries came from Queensland. The Lott has confirmed that the Prahran resident holds one out of the four division one winning entries from TattsLotto's recent draw.
