Frenchman Won € 15 Million in a Christmas Raffle
This is the second biggest win in lottery history.
One of the countless candidate millionaires, who bade for the fourth highest state lottery jackpot ever in Bulgaria, hit the right numbers Sunday evening and pocketed BGN 4 855 307.
The record sum was won with an ordinary lottery ticket for BGN 4.
The winner guessed the six lucky numbers from 1 to 49 - 6, 9, 19, 22, 29, 42, which were drawn Sunday night to determine if there are any winners.
The jackpot this week will start from BGN 1 M after the person, who hit the record-high jackpot in June, did not come to receive the money.
The sum of BGN 6 575 225, 40 was supposed to be received by a person from the Bulgarian city of Lovech, in a 45-day period.
The Bulgarian State Lottery has decided that the money should be distributed in half to them and to the Bulgarian Sports Ministry.
The State Lottery, however, has proposed to the Council of Ministers and the State Commission on Gambling that its half should be brought back to the game, adding BGN 1 M every time the jackpot falls for three consecutive times.
