Although this year has represented several difficulties and challenges for millions of Colombians, it seems that luck is still smiling on some people. That is the case of a man in Manizales, Caldas, who decided to bet $5,000 on the 'Millionaire Chance' and ended up winning a prize of more than 6,000 million pesos.

According to a press release from the brand that represents this draw, the player from the department of Caldas won a prize of $4,914,105,922, a figure that represents the most expensive accumulated amount ever had. But the man had a double stroke of luck because he was also successful in his bet, the regional accumulated Double Play for $2,067,843,000.

To obtain the prize, the player had to select 5 4-digit numbers plus two lotteries or raffles. If you match two of the numbers and the two selected lotteries or raffles, you will be awarded the jackpot. If he matches only one number and one chosen lottery or draw, he would win a smaller amount.

According to the press release, this would be the second time that a player managed to win a high-value jackpot, after betting the sum of $5,000, at that time another bettor from Caldas matched the numbers of the Lottery of Cauca and the Lottery from Boyaca.
