UAE: 4 expats from Canada, India, Philippines win Dh50,000 each in Big Ticket
Four individuals win big this week in the Big Ticket e-draw, each taking home Dh50,000; the winners include nationals from Canada, India, and the Philippines.
Originally from the Philippines, Dennis Mallari has been participating in Big Ticket draws since 2012. He purchased his ticket early, a week ahead of the draw, hoping it might increase his chances of winning, and it did.
For the past year, he has been buying tickets every month with a group of seven colleagues, all of whom work as photographers. Together, they purchase two tickets monthly and have long been dreaming of one day winning the grand prize.
"I will be sharing this prize with my group, but I'll continue buying tickets every month in the hopes of winning the grand prize one day,' he said. He plans to use his portion of the cash prize as savings and to invest in future ticket purchases.
Tubin Baby from India purchased three tickets and received six additional tickets free as part of the ongoing bundle offer. It was one of these free tickets that secured his win. He was overjoyed upon hearing the news.
From Canada, Anthony Guidon also took part in the ongoing bundle offer, which granted him six tickets. His lucky win came from one of these free tickets. He was ecstatic when he found out.
Abu Dhabi resident, Goutam Ghosh purchased his ticket online just a few days before the draw. He has been buying tickets on and off over the years, always on his own, and this time, his single ticket turned out to be the lucky one.
He shared that his wife didn't know he had bought a ticket, and he now plans to surprise her with the prize and celebrate the win together.

Leading up to the live draw, Big Ticket will hold its weekly e-draws, awarding Dh50,000 to four lucky winners. That's a total of 16 cash prizes given away before the main event even begins.
