Thai family celebrates 6 million baht lottery win in Kamphaeng Phet

A heartwarming surprise unfolded yesterday, October 17, when a Thai woman revealed to her mother that she had won the top lottery prize.

The moment, captured on video by the Facebook page Lottery Plus, shows the family in Kamphaeng Phet province celebrating after discovering they had hit the jackpot worth 6 million baht.

The surprise began when the daughter asked her mother to help check the lottery ticket for the draw held on Wednesday, October 16. The winning number was 482962. Initially, the daughter told her mother that they had won the two-digit prize, leading her mother to ask jokingly how they would be treating her as she walked into her bedroom.

The daughter then called her mother back to check another ticket and handed her the phone to read the message aloud. The mother read slowly, “Congratulations, you have won the first prize,” and paused in disbelief.

Realising the magnitude of their win, the mother jumped for joy, clutching the lottery ticket before rushing to share the news with her son. The family celebrated together, with the mother noting that the winning number included their house number, adding a special touch to their good fortune.

The daughter then handed the winning ticket to her mother, who embraced her amid the emotional moment, reported KhaoSod.

The daughter, Charee, shared her story.

“I’m from Kamphaeng Phet and opened a shop in Nonthaburi. I saved money to build a house for my mother. When we started construction, I got house number 482 from the district office, and I bought the ticket on the Nokk Plus app. Finally, we got the money to build the house as we hoped.”
