Dublin EuroMillions players seeing double with SECOND €500,000 win in less than a week!

A EuroMillions player in Dublin got their weekend off to an incredible start after scooping the top prize of €500,000 in the Plus draw. The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on Thursday 19th February at the Centra Drumcondra store at 32-38 Lower Drumcondra Road in Dublin 9.

The winning EuroMillions Plus numbers for Friday’s 20th February draw were: 02, 12, 26, 28, 41.

The win marks the second EuroMillions Plus top prize win for a Dublin player in less than seven days. Tuesday’s draw saw a player in the Dublin 24 area scoop €500,000 after purchasing their ticket at Dunnes Stores in the Square Shopping Centre in Tallaght.

Friday night’s EuroMillions main draw also saw a player in Cork match five numbers and one lucky star to win an incredible €161,198. The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on the day of the draw at Mace Sallybrook in Glanmire, Co. Cork.

The winning numbers in the Friday 20th February EuroMillions draw were: 13, 24, 28, 33, 35 and lucky stars 05 and 09.

National Lottery spokesperson Sarah Orr had the following advice for players: “Over the past week, EuroMillions players in Dublin have enjoyed incredible wins. A player in Drumcondra got their weekend started in style after scooping the top prize of €500,000 in Friday night’s draw. Just days earlier, a player in Tallaght won €500,000 in Tuesday’s Plus draw while last Friday 13th February, another Drumcondra player won €1,005,000 in the special Ireland Only Raffle.”

“A Cork player also had plenty to celebrate on Friday night after matching five numbers and one lucky star to win €161,198 in the main draw.

Meanwhile, as there was no winner of the huge €130 million jackpot on offer, Tuesday’s EuroMillions jackpot is now set to roll towards an estimated €140 million.
