Estevan, SK – Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC) is pleased to announce a Vault Breaker jackpot prize awarded by the Saskatchewan VLT program. Cody Turcotte of Dunmore, Alberta was awarded $1,190,525.67 after winning the grand jackpot on Vault Breaker at the Tower Restaurant in Estevan on October 21.
Turcotte said when the win came up on screen, he was simply speechless.
“I was just shocked,” he said. “The guy behind me had to tell me how much I’d won!”
The Dunmore local intends to upgrade his home with his new windfall and enjoy the change of pace it provides.
“I’m planning to pay the mortgage and then build a shop on my acreage!” he smiled. “This will help get me home and [be with] my family all the time instead of working on the road.”
