A lottery player who bought a ticket in West Vancouver is currently totally unaware that in their pocket, or at home, is a ticket worth an incredible $10.2 million.

The life-changing amount of money was won in the Lotto 6/49 draw on October 20. The winning numbers were 6, 9, 34, 35, 48 and 49. The bonus ball was 41.

Another winner, who took part in the Extra part of the Lotto draw on October 20 also won $500,000 but has yet to claim their prize. The Extra winning numbers were 4, 40, 54 and 90.

Lottery players in B.C. have had a winning streak in 2021, netting more than $70 million in winnings from Lotto 6/49.

Earlier this month, Prince Rupert's Juanita Parnell took home $5.8 million after playing the same numbers for 20 years.

Another winner, Susan Friesen, said the luck of Hope, B.C., where she lives, must have helped her towards her $1 million win.
