Two Dublin players have won big on Friday's EuroMillions draw with one lucky punter scooping a whopping €500,000 prize.
The National Lottery is urging EuroMillions players in capital to check their tickets this morning after Friday night's EuroMillions saw prize-winning tickets sold in two stores. The biggest win was the Euromillions Plus top prize of €500,000 which was sold at the Trinity College Student Union shop.
The store's owner Patrick Pierce was delighted to have sold the life-changing jackpot. He said: "Just wow! It's absolutely crazy to imagine somebody popping into the shop yesterday and they are now a half million euro richer for it today.

"The shop has been going in the college for 30 years. We of course have a lot of students and college staff members from the campus in our store each and every day.
"In addition, we also have a lot of tourists coming and going all of the time but whoever the winner is, I'm sure that €500,000 will make a huge difference to them and their families. We're absolutely thrilled for them."
Meanwhile another Dublin player is waking up significantly richer after landing €193,667 for matching five numbers and one lucky star in the main EuroMillions draw. The winning Quick Pick ticket was sold at the Circle K Westway service station on the Kylemore Road in Dublin 12.
