Dublin Family Syndicate Scoops €40,000 Top Prize on Sizzling Hot 7s!
27/05/2025
A Dublin-based family syndicate of four is turning up the heat after striking it big with a €40,000 Top Prize on the National Lottery’s online Instant Win Game, Sizzling Hot 7s!
Available to play online for just €2 per game, Sizzling Hot 7s gives players the chance to win instant cash prizes – and for this family syndicate, that chance turned into a life-enhancing moment.
The thrilled family recently visited the National Lottery’s famous Winners Room to collect their prize and shared the story behind the surprise win:
“A friend of mine had just won €200 on the same game – that’s why I gave it a go. I nearly dropped the phone when I saw the screen. I thought I’d won €40… not €40,000! My eyes were playing tricks on me,” laughed the mother.
“Mum rang me with the news shortly after, and I was convinced she was joking!” added one of the daughters, still in disbelief.
The family already has exciting plans for their prize. Some members are hoping to put the winnings towards a deposit for a new home, while others are dreaming of a sunny getaway and, of course, a celebration together to mark their sizzling success.
Sizzling Hot 7s is quickly heating up as a fan favourite among National Lottery players, especially after this latest Top Prize win.
