    Isn't rather suspicious that he won 44M on the Thai lottery AND 96m on the online lottery in the same draw. Or am I reading it incorrectly? Nobody is that lucky!

  • You can buy tickets from vendors or online via a website, its the same lottery, the same tickets. If you wanted more than the tickets the vendor has, then you would need to buy online. vendors do

  • When asked what he will do about the begging letters he said he would keep sending them!

Its terrible. Euromillions is almost the same price per ticket and yet 40x the jackpot. Its almost as if the Thai lottery is a swindle.

Obviously it isn't a "swindle".  It's almost as though the chances of a big win are that much greater with the Thai lottery.  They are.

That reminds me of my sister who participated in a kind of little lottery a long time ago.

And when she won they told her: Sorry, you are not yet 18, this is sponsored by cigarette brand x and a condition is you have to be 18 or older... 

 

Or: go ahead, buy your tickets...

Most likely a promotional photo and the win would be sent to his bank account as all big GLO wins are, they're not paid in cash.

I guess he's the one on the left in the photos - why isn't he smiling?

He think that he has a subtle self-satisfied smirk - much as I would display in his situation.

 

The lottery guy's fake PR smile is cringe-worthy.

I wonder who he is related to.

24 winning tickets.  I was wondering how many tickets they made with the same numbers.  The most I have seen sold as a set is 15.

They use the profits to go to charities.

This money was delivered to him in cash by Kong Salak Plus executive Nott Phanthawat Nakwisut yesterday following the draw on Thursday.

Nonsense!!  As if !

The question is how long will he be able to  keep it,before the family  ask him for a loan.A thai loan that never gets paid back.Why put his face on social media after winning the money,a big mistake for sure

Can someone please convert it

 

4. 1 million dollars. Lucky <deleted>. He's got me beat by about 3 million. And he didn't have to work for it. Life is about being in the right place at the right time. Nothing else. Effort doesn't matter. Discipline doesn't matter. 

I guess all those "friends" will be round to his place right smart. In his place I'd move somewhere unknown and replace the door chime with a laugh track.

Khun Ti said he divined the numbers from joss-sticks after he went to the temple to pray.

No, they use players' LOSSES to go to charities!  

I wish him all the very best, but hope it does not end up ruining his life. 

I say this as a very concerned long lost relative twice removed, who lost contact with him in kindergarten school.

On the other hand the odds of winning the Thai jackpot are 1 in 1,000,000 but the odds of a jackpot in the Euromillions are 1 in 139,838,160 (nearly 140 times lower).

No, seems he bought the same number on all the tickets, paper and online, 24 of them and hit the Bht 6M jackpot, which adds up to 144M

The most you can win on a ticket is 6 million baht.  That would only be 48 million baht.

hope he doesn't forget it in a taxi

Heads for Wat with bunch of incense from Big C!

I'm not seeing this anywhere in English yet, so here goes.

 

On Thai Rath TV last night, officials from the local police station near the Kong Salak Plus Office raided it and took a bunch of photos. Mr. Kong Salak was angry and said they've done nothing wrong, flashing around some govt documents. Mr. Police flashed around photos he said ties the place to Chinese gangsters, said he heard businessmen speaking Chinese in the office, and claims this to have some connection to the recent Chinese Triad busts. Heh. Keeps getting better and better.

 

Wouldn't doubt the Chinese connection, but bet the police connection is likely the usual "Hmm, money. Looks like there might be something illegal here. Give us some to make us go away".
