Saying “yes” to ENCORE paid off for Fei Fei Song of Collingwood. She matched the last six of seven ENCORE numbers in exact order in the February 19, 2025, LOTTO 6/49 draw to win $100,000!

Fei Fei, a mother of three, has been an occasional lottery player with OLG for five years. When she purchases a LOTTO 6/49 or LOTTO MAX ticket, she chooses numbers that correlate to special birthdays and makes sure to add ENCORE. Fei Fei is now delighted to share the news of her first big win.

“It was early morning when I was woken up by an email from OLG. I wasn’t sure of its validity and was hesitant to click on the link provided,” Fei Fei recounted, while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto. “I decided to manually check the winning numbers on my phone and nearly jumped when I realized I’d won! I told my husband, and he was so happy!”

“I’m thrilled! Winning this prize has been amazing,” Fei Fei smiled. “I have two children in college and a younger daughter. I will use my winnings to help with their tuition and make sure my daughter can attend a good summer program. I can finally take it easy,” she concluded.

ENCORE offers 22 ways to win and can be played in conjunction with most lottery games for an extra $1. There are two ENCORE draws every day.

The winning ticket was purchased on OLG.ca.
