A resident of Gdańsk will receive 5,000 zlotys regularly — he won the grand prize in the Ekstra Pensja game

A resident of Gdańsk has won an unusual prize — they will receive 5,000 zlotys monthly for 20 years after a successful ticket in the Ekstra Pensja game. The lucky coupon, costing only 5 zlotys, turned out to be a winner in Friday’s Lotto draw.

Ekstra Pensja is one of the numerical games of Lotto. The winner receives 5,000 zlotys monthly for 20 years if they play at the base rate. This amount can be increased, allowing for a win of up to 50,000 zlotys per month.

The resident of Gdańsk (or resident — although statistics show that gambling is more often engaged in by men) chose the cheapest option, but is unlikely to complain. The ticket, purchased at a Lotto point on ul. Piotrkowskiej 25 in Gdańsk for 5 zlotys, turned out to be lucky. It had the numbers: 2, 3, 13, 14, 32, and 1 — these were the numbers drawn in Friday’s draw. In total, over the years, the winner will receive more than 1 million zlotys.

Large wins in Lotto in Tricity are not uncommon. In March, someone won exactly 1 million zlotys in Bojano. In October last year, there was a report about a lucky winner from Władysławowo who won 5,924,932.70 zlotys by betting on «a lucky chance».
