A Betfred South Africa player finished July on a high after winning big in one of the final UK49's Teatime Draws of the month.

The player guessed their 6 numbers and placed a bet worth just R6. Matching all six numbers meant they won a huge jackpot worth R1,500,000 – that’s 250,000x the bet.

Lucky Numbers is a widely played numbers betting game in South Africa that lets players wager on the numbers they believe will be drawn, rather than buying a traditional lottery ticket.

Draws take place at scheduled intervals throughout the day, giving you more frequent opportunities to play than many traditional lotteries. If your selected numbers match the winning numbers, you win according to the game's payout rules.

Betfred posts Lucky Numbers wins fairly regularly since it has so many users who enjoy betting on such lotteries. To join thousands of other players, just create an account and head to the “Numbers” section of the site.

You can bet on draws by which ones are upcoming, or you can pick some of the favourites like Russia Gosloto, Nifty 50 Draw, or the UK 49’s Teatime.
