The Lottario draw in Canada on 24th October 2009 netted one lucky chap a tidy sum of $250,000 but the winner was oblivious to his win until recently saying that had he known he had a winner he would have stepped forward and claimed the very next day. The Lottario jackpot for this Barrie man came after he managed to match 6/6 of the numbers he chose for the Lottario draw.
His winning numbers were 02 06 10 21 31 39 and these lucky numbers mean that Wieslaw Kaldunski of Barrie will be taking $250,000 to the bank.
