What’s Happening?
A Rockhampton man has started the week with a 6-digit win in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 11073, drawn on 11 May 2026.
The Central Queensland local held the 1st Prize winning entry after buying a ticket through The Lott website.
He said the call from The Lott came as a complete surprise.
“I’m blown away. You never expect to win big and when it does happen, it’s just unbelievable,” he said.
“What terrific news to start my week.“
“I wouldn’t mind waking up to a phone call like this every day.”
The Rockhampton man said the prize would likely make his partner happy as well.
“This will certainly put me in the good books with my partner. I’ll let her decide what to do with the prize,” he said.
“I can’t wait to tell her. I’ll have to wait for her to get home from work.“
“It’s going to take a while to sink in.”
Why It Matters?
The latest win adds to a strong run of lottery luck across Central Queensland.
The region has already celebrated several major wins this year, including two $2.5 million Saturday Gold Lotto prizes won by a Frenchville dad and a mystery Emerald player over the weekend.

Lucky Lotteries games use a raffle style system, meaning every ticket number in each draw is unique.
Players also have a chance to win growing jackpots if the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers drawn.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot has reached $1.72 million for draw 1784, while the Super Jackpot sits at $2.71 million for draw 11074.
