Dubai stock controller wins Dh25,000 in surprise Big Ticket draw

A Dubai stock controller has scooped Dh25,000 in the latest Big Ticket e-draw. Mohammed Sameer, who has lived in the city for 14 years, called the win completely unexpected. This victory came after he changed his usual approach to entering the competition.

Sameer had been taking part in Big Ticket for seven to eight years. Normally, he joined group entries but decided to buy a single ticket this time. The win caught him off guard because he was unaware the draw took place weekly.

The prize formed part of Big Ticket’s final April e-draw, with total winnings of Dh100,000 up for grabs. After the surprise victory, Sameer is now thinking about treating his family to a celebratory trip. He also plans to keep entering future draws, hoping his luck continues. Big Ticket is launching a new campaign in May, packed with promotions and prizes. The highlight will be a Dh20 million grand prize draw scheduled for June 3. Sameer credits his success to chance and urges others to try their luck in the competition.

Sameer’s Dh25,000 win marks a shift in his approach to the long-running draw. His decision to enter individually paid off, and he remains eager to participate again. The upcoming May campaign will offer even bigger rewards, including the Dh20 million grand prize.
