Lone Mark Six Ticket Wins Record-Breaking HK$194 Million Jackpot During Chinese New Year

CNY Mark Six Snowball

In a stunning stroke of luck, a single lottery ticket has claimed the largest jackpot in Hong Kong’s Mark Six lottery history, winning an eye-popping HK$193,762,620 during the Chinese New Year Snowball draw.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club announced Friday that the record-breaking ticket was purchased at an off-course betting branch, capturing the imagination of millions across the city. The extraordinary draw attracted a staggering total turnover of over HK$380 million, underscoring the immense popularity of the lottery during the festive season.

The winning numbers — 14, 18, 30, 36, 40, and 42, with an extra number of 1 — have transformed an anonymous ticket holder into an instant multimillionaire.

While the top prize went to a single winner, the draw was not without further success for other participants. Twelve second-prize tickets were sold, each worth more than HK$1.2 million. Additionally, over 530 third-prize tickets were distributed, with each winning HK$72,500.

As speculation mounts about the identity of the lucky ticket holder, the Mark Six Snowball draw continues to capture public fascination, offering a glimmer of hope and extraordinary possibility during the Chinese New Year celebrations.
