An Ontario lottery winner cashed in his good luck after winning twice off the same ticket.
According to OLG, Vergilio Fiore from Barrie, Ontario, won the Poker Lotto All In jackpot worth $86,983.30 on March 17 and an additional $5,000 off his instant portion of the play, which brought his total winnings to nearly $92,000.
Fiore, who is a father of three, was reportedly buying other lottery tickets when he decided to take a chance on Poker Lotto All In and won big.
"The cashier told me I won, and I freaked out. I immediately called my wife and told her I won," he said.
"This is amazing. I've never experienced anything like this before," he added.
