Lottery player consistently plays the same numbers for decades, wins AU$1 million.

The recent Weekday Windfall draw on Monday, September 7, 2026, resulted in three division one winning entries across Australia. Each winner from the 4752 draw will receive a life-changing AU$1 million, equivalent to $722,000. One lucky winner, a man from Canowindra in Cabonne Shire, New South Wales, bought his System 7 entry at the Canowindra Post Shop, located at 54 Gaskill Street. Karen Cummings, who owns the shop, shared her excitement in an interview with The Lott about selling a division one winning ticket for the first time since they opened around three years ago. She extended her congratulations to the winner and wished them all the best.

When The Lott reached out to the lucky winner, he confessed he was still in a state of shock. This long-time player had been using the same seven numbers for decades. Describing the win as very surreal, he shared: I saw it last night and it didn’t even register. I thought, ‘oh yeah, those are my numbers’. It took me a moment to realize what that actually meant. Despite his consistent play, he often doubted his numbers would be chosen, admitting, It’s funny because there’s plenty of times I’ve thought, ‘These numbers will never come out’. Now a newly minted millionaire, he revealed that the windfall arrived at just the right moment, as he had been considering a move. With his newfound wealth, living near the beach will be a real treat.
