Online Illinois Lottery player wins $1.3M in FastPlay game
An online Illinois Lottery player has big plans for his family after winning $1.3 million in a FastPlay game. The winner, nicknamed King of the Castle, says he only plays games for fun, but after some challenging times, he took a chance one day. "I was thinking about my family—we've been going through some challenging times. I took a chance on Cash Castle, and couldn't believe it when I actually hit the jackpot. This win truly came at the perfect time." He said he screamed for his wife after realizing he won the prize. "I was overwhelmed with emotion and crying tears of joy. This win still feels unreal, like a dream. It really is a beautiful shock." Lottery officials said the win is the second-largest Cash Castle jackpot prize won, following a $1.4 million jackpot win in April. The winner said he plans on taking his family on a dream vacation. "We've always wanted to take our family to Walt Disney World, but we've never been able to fit it into our budget. Now is the perfect time! We can't wait to treat our five kids and eight grandkids to their first Disney World vacation." Cash Castle is a $30 progressive jackpot FastPlay game. The jackpot begins at $100,000 and grows with each ticket sold statewide until the jackpot is won. FastPlay games require no numbers to pick, pay slips, scratching, or waiting for numbers. Tickets for the game can be purchased in-store, online, or on the Illinois Lottery app. Participants must be at least 18 years of age to play.

Biggest lottery win in UK history up for grabs in £208m EuroMillions draw
A UK ticket-holder could win the biggest lottery prize the country has ever seen tonight if they match the numbers in Friday's EuroMillions draw. The jackpot has rolled over again to an estimated £208 million after Tuesday's £199 million draw, which would also have been a record-breaking amount, had no winners. The jackpot on Friday would be the largest prize the UK has seen, National Lottery operator Allwyn said. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: 'We are now on the verge of potentially creating the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen – making a single UK winner instantly richer than the likes of Adele and Dua Lipa while also landing them at the number one spot on The National Lottery's biggest wins list.' Here are the 10 biggest UK lottery wins to date – all from EuroMillions draws – and what some of the winners did with their fortunes. Anonymous, £195,707,000 A UK ticket-holder scooped a EuroMillions jackpot of £195 million on July 19 2022. Joe and Jess Thwaite, £184,262,899.10 Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, scooped a then record-breaking £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket for the draw on May 10 2022. At the time, Joe was a communications sales engineer, and Jess ran a hairdressing salon with her sister. Anonymous, £177,033,699.20 A UK ticket-holder became the third biggest National Lottery winner of all time after receiving a £177 million jackpot. The single-ticket holder, who chose to remain anonymous, came forward to claim the EuroMillions jackpot after the draw on November 26 2024. The winner became immediately wealthier than popstar Dua Lipa, who is worth an estimated £104 million, and Michael Buble, worth around £63 million. Anonymous, £171,815,297.80 A UK ticket-holder scooped £171,815,297.80 in the September 23 2022 draw – at the time the country's third biggest National Lottery win. Anonymous, £170,221,000 The fifth biggest winner of the National Lottery to date scooped £170 million in 2019 after matching all the numbers in a Must Be Won draw on October 8. Colin and Chris Weir, £161,653,000 Colin and Chris Weir, from Largs, North Ayrshire, bagged their historic winnings on July 12 2011, making them the biggest UK winners at the time. Colin used £2.5 million of his fortune to invest in his beloved Partick Thistle Football Club, which led to one of the stands at the stadium being named after him. He later acquired a 55% shareholding in the club, which was to be passed into the hands of the local community upon his death. He died in December 2019, aged 71. The couple also set up the Weir Charitable Trust in 2013 and donated £1 million to the Scottish independence referendum in 2014. They divorced in the same year of Colin's death. Adrian and Gillian Bayford, £148,656,000 Adrian and Gillian won 190 million euros in a EuroMillions draw on August 10, 2012, which came to just over £148 million.

A single ticket-holder could win the biggest lottery prize the UK has ever seen if they match the right numbers in tonight's EuroMillions draw. The jackpot has rolled over to an estimated £208m, after Tuesday's £199m draw - which also would have been a record-breaking amount - had no winners.

"I saw how much and I didn't know what to do," Mr Thwaite said. "I couldn't go back to sleep, I didn't want to wake Jess up, so I just laid there for what seemed like forever. I spent some time searching for property with no budget limit, which was a novelty!" When his wife woke up, she assumed the National Lottery app was wrong.
