***************************
The LOTTO MAX odds have shone in favour of Remo Gallo of Bradford! He won a MAXMILLIONS prize worth $500,000 in the May 27, 2022 LOTTO MAX draw.

Gallo said this isn’t his first big win. 

“I won $126,000 on POKER LOTTO in 2015,” he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his winnings.

The 43-year-old father of two said he scanned his ticket early one morning when he thought he had won $50,000 and a free play. “Then I saw more zeroes and thought, ‘Wow.’ I told my wife, and she started crying!'”

Gallo said it feels surreal. “It’s amazing to win, then win again!”

He plans to use his winnings to pay for his children’s education, treat himself and spend time with his family.
