Saying "yes" to ENCORE has paid off for a woman from Jordan!

Judith Prudhomme, a 74 year old grandmother, won $1 million after matching all seven ENCORE numbers in the right order in the August 14th LOTTO 6/49 draw.

"I was in disbelief when I realized I won," she shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her winnings. "When I told my husband, he knew I wasn’t joking because I was so excited!"

She says she plans to invest and share the money with her kids.

The winning ticket was bought at All Ways Convenience on King Street in Vineland.
