A lucky lotto player in Tuscany, Italy has won a record 147.8 million-euros in a state lottery.
The winner will pocket what has been billed as Europe's biggest ever jackpot.
The winning ticket was purchased in the Sisal Biffi coffee shop in Bagnone, a town of about 2-thousand in the province of Massa Carrara near the Tuscan coast. In Italy, lotto winners rarely come forward.
The winning combination - 11, 27, 10, 79, 45, 88 - was selected after weeks of mounting lotto fever that prompted tourists from around Europe to visit and play the Suprenalotto game.
No-one had won the top prize since January 31.
