One of the largest lottery prizes ever doled out in Greece, worth €7.5 million from the recent Tzoker (joker) lottery draw, has still not been claimed, the Allwyn gaming and lottery company announced this week.
The winning ticket was sold at a betting parlor in the Gazi district of Heraklion, Crete. Usually, but not always, recipients of major lottery and sports betting winnings in Greece remain anonymous.
“We haven’t received any calls about this ticket yet. We are waiting for instructions from the central lottery office to prepare for the winner,” a spokesperson told local media, adding: “I hope the person enjoys it and is always lucky. Hopefully, they really need it.”
Winning numbers and other prizes
The winning numbers in the latest draw were 23, 45, 12, 37, 34, with the Tzoker number 3.
In addition to the two top-tier tickets sharing the €15 million jackpot, nine other tickets matched five numbers, each winning €100,000.
