Israeli Payout Big Win
Israel has just paid out its biggest lottery win to date to a couple who have
been holding on to the enormous wining ticket, unknowingly, for four months.
Israel has a pretty popular national lottery system despite the fact that online
casinos are strictly illegal. Four months ago the jackpot reached an all time
high, and although the jackpot was won, no one stepped forward to claim the
massive prize. The winning couple, who, naturally, wish to remain nameless,
casually found the wining ticket in a stack of papers – the husband notes that
he almost didn’t even check the numbers on the lottery ticket!
They did though, and they are now two of the luckiest Israelis in Israel right
now. Lottery gambling is particularly popular in the country because of the
strict ban on online casino gambling and, as such, the jackpot sizes are
increasing on a fairly regular basis. The couple actually have no idea what they
plan to do with the GBP 13 million win. The Israeli government will take 25
percent of the winnings as a tax on all lottery wins in the country, but that
still leaves the winning couple with a huge sum of money. They will likely give
some of the money to charity according to the wife, and Gamble Craft is betting
that there will be some upgrades to the house and car in the near future – also
likely a vacation as that is par for the course for major and unexpected wins on
jackpots in the lottery and at the online casinos all over the world.
Israeli’s lottery jackpot is on the rise again and perhaps this recent win will
serve as motivation to anyone who looks at a lottery ticket and ponders not even
checking the numbers. |
