The LOTTO MAX odds have shone in favour of April Duncan and Frank Liebhardt of Orangeville. They had the winning ticket for a MAXMILLIONS prize worth $1 million from the June 11, 2021 LOTTO MAX draw. The pair also won $5 on another LOTTO MAX selection, bringing their total winnings to$1,000,005!

“This is our largest win,” shared the brother and sister duo. “We are regular lottery players and get excited when the number of MAXMILLIONS prizes are high!”

April, 56, says she checked her ticket the day after the draw using the OLG Lottery App.

“At first, I thought we won $1,000, I showed my mom the phone screen and she told me to look again,” she laughed. “I couldn’t believe it was true!”

April called Frank right away to tell him about their big win.

“I was at the bank,” the 50-year-old said. “I left right away to see for myself and cheered and jumped around with my family!”

April and Frank are overjoyed about their win. They are planning to take a family vacation together when it’s safe. Frank plans to purchase a fishing boat and invest in his children’s future. April plans to travel with friends and her family.
