Oneil Desrosiers has found that the third time’s a charm rule is not true, it is two times is a charm for the Hodgeville resident. The Canada resident played the Scratch n’ Win $2 blackjack lottery ticket recently and managed to win $21,000! Oneil purchased the ticket from the EMTA Agencies in Hodgeville and with just a $2 investment, earned the $21,000 win! The lottery ticket was created based on the casino game of blackjack and is quite popular with gamblers.
Oneil commented: “this was only the second Scratch ‘n’ Win ticket I have ever bought. The clerk was filling the display board and asked me if I wanted one, so I bought it.” Oneil was not sure if he had won after he scratched the ticket so he showed the clerk and had it checked.
The clerk knows Oneil well as he comes in the store quite a bit and he told him he needed to sit down so he could tell him a joke. The clerk told Oneil he had won the prize and he was so excited he forgot his hat, cup and the lottery ticket. He went to get his wife, who thought he was joking since he jokes a lot. However this time Oneil was telling the truth!
The missus will be getting a good Christmas from Oneil, as he has promised to provide her one. She will be getting kitchen cabinets which will complete the couple’s home renovations. Oneil is walking on air after his recent win and I’m sure he will be playing the lottery more often now, especially the blackjack version!
