What's the most you have won with a lottery?

I've never won more than a few bucks.
More...

A funny friend bought me a lottery ticket once for my birthday because he was too lazy to get me a real gift. He even had this shitty grin on his face when I unwrapped my present to discover he gave me the lotto ticket.

The next day of the drawing...I check my lotto ticket to discover I had just won about $5700 dollars via 6/7 numbers.

I split the pot evenly with him and its still a great laugh between us today.

By the way, 7/7 numbers would have netted about 55 million. :(

Had I won that, I would have not split the pot evenly but given him just 1 million. :D

Ha, that's amazing! I wish it happened to me too, but the most I've gotten is three numbers out of seven. I still play with the same numbers though, every once in a while.
 
I do not know how to win such a jackpot. You really need to be so lucky or have a super lotto strategy. I used once the lotto official https://onepoundlotto.com/ but won only few dollars at the time. But I did not give up and will continue playing in different lotteries from around the world.
 
Won $600 on a scratch off that was a X-Mas stocking stuffer about 20 years ago. I thought it was a dud, but fortunately my Dad took a look and saw it was a winner.
Side note, not that he will see it, or care, I have a buddy I grew up with that teaches at New Trier.
 
$15K(ish). $5-6K pooled while in undergrad when Illinois had a (then) record Lotto.

(Less relevant) $100K on Jax first SB (took the under) and won by a point IIRC. $41K on Poirier to win against McNuggets at +275 (avg) in 2021.
