What happens when you win lotto?
It's a dream for many but only a handful of lucky people will get to experience the process of what happens if you come across those winning numbers.
The WA Lotto player and another east coast punter each pocketed $2,025,245.12.
Another seven WA players picked up a very handy $12,499.80 for having five of the winning numbers plus one of the supplementary numbers, 5 and 38.
WA's newest millionaire joins two lifelong mates from Perth's southern suburbs who won $2 million in last Saturday's Division 1 prize.
The two friends had been playing Lotto together for 25 years.
"Rain, hail or shine, our numbers go on every week," one of the friends said.
"We've seen how lucky players from WA have been and always held out hope we'd win too," they added.
The pair, who would usually check their ticket the night of the draw, didn't realise that they were winners until the following day.
"I was checking our numbers in the newspaper and saw that we had four and was pretty rapt that we'd won something," the other friend said.
"Then I saw that we had all six and thought I must be dreaming," they added.
