Dubai: An Indian expat working in Dubai's transport department, 29-year-old Rockey Subba, has triumphed in the recent Big Ticket weekly e-draw by securing his first-ever Dh25,000 prize. Subba, who has resided in Dubai with his family for six years, became acquainted with the game through a friend who had bought a ticket recently.
Intrigued to test his luck, Subba joined a group of five friends in purchasing a ticket. He selected his number based on his lucky birthday. Upon learning of his winnings, Subba was initially skeptical, stating, "I was so happy." He confirmed the victory by checking the results online and was overjoyed when he saw his name displayed.
Subba will share the Dh25,000 prize with his five friends, though he plans to indulge in a little shopping. Looking ahead, he aspires to win the grand prize. Big Ticket's weekly e-draws will continue in October, with four winners each set to receive a 200-gram, 24-karat gold bar. The draws will be broadcast live at 7.30pm on the Big Ticket YouTube channel and website.
