Donegal punter scoops €20,000 on magical €2 lotto bet

A lucky MintBet punter in Donegal pocketed €20,000 from an optimistic Irish Lotto bet.

The unnamed customer at the Donegal bookmakers stuck just two quid on four numbers from six (without bonus) on Saturday night’s Irish Lotto Plus 1 draw.

If this bet had been placed two weeks ago it would have paid €4,000 less, but MintBet just recently increased their odds on this bet from 8,000/1 up to an incredible 10,000/1

MintBet shops are located throughout the north of Donegal with long-standing offices in Muff, Bridgend, Buncrana and Letterkenny.

This is already the second MintBet customer to benefit from the new 10,000/1 odds in the first two weeks of its launch.

MintBet owner Thomas McBride said: “He had luck on his side, which is of course what you need with lotto bets.

“We just recently upped our lotto odds by two thousand points which we knew was a risk, but we pride ourselves on having the most competitive numbers odds in the North-West.

“Congratulations to the lucky customer, I hope they enjoy their winnings.”
