To call Queenstown's harbourmaster Marty Black jammy would be an understatement.
Almost four years after winning $500,000 in a Lotto draw, two weeks ago he won $333,000 after three players shared the top first division prize of $1million.
Black, 74, bought the ticket from Queenstown's Pak'nSave, then, while on his way to his North Canterbury holiday home, his partner popped into a Geraldine shop where she found the ticket had won four bonus lines.
"Just by sheer luck, it ended up as a winner" — although he did not find out until almost a week later, when checking his ticket at a Cheviot Lotto outlet.
