Best Lotto Payout of the Year

This category doesn’t quite decide itself...but it partly does as the numbers don’t lie. Here we looked for some of the whopping payouts.

However it isn’t just about the numbers. What equally matters to us are the people and the stories behind the numbers.

Lotto betting can bring huge excitement to people’s lives and sometimes even change their lives. So we considered the human side as well as the numbers when deciding on this category.
