My faith in theLotter was definitely confirmed

What brought you to theLotter?

What is your strategy?
- I always check my luck before playing. I go by my gut feeling and have a few tricks to test my luck. I choose whether to play on a particular day depending on how lucky I am feeling. I have a bit of a psychic in me. I only play when I feel like I am being helped by somebody out of this world.

Have you won anything before?
- I used to bet on horses in Venezuela and once won a car. However, the biggest win of my life was through theLotter.
