ONE lucky Irish punter is celebrating tonight after bagging a nice win in the EuroDreams.
There was no winner of the EuroDreams top prize of €20,000 a month for 30 years.

In total, over 18,000 players in Ireland won prizes.
The number drawn were: 16, 23, 25, 37, 38 and 40.
The Dream Number was 5.
The winning player was heartbreakingly just one number away from bagging the top prize.
To get this, they would have had to match all six numbers along with the dream number.
But instead, they managed to match all six numbers in the draw, meaning they will now get €2,000 every month.
The lucky winner will receive this sum every month for five years.
Lotto bosses have not yet revealed the location where the winning ticket was purchased.
But those who bought a EuroDreams ticket have been urged to check theirs.
If you’re holding the winning ticket, be sure to contact the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie to arrange the collection of your prize.
TAX-FREE PRIZES
EuroDreams is a lottery numbers game where players in eight participating European countries can play to win the top prize.
Players pick six numbers between 1 and 40 and then one dream number between 1 and 5.
EuroDreams can be played in Ireland, Austria, Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland.
For each draw, the top prize is an Annuity Prize of €20,000 per month for 30 years.
If you win the promotional prize on a retail ticket, a prompt requiring you to contact the National Lottery will be shown after your ticket is scanned in store or on the National Lottery app.
For digital winners, your usual prize will be credited to your online balance or directly to your card.
For the promotional bonus prizes, the National Lottery will contact you via phone or email to share the news.
These promotional annuity prizes are also tax-free, meaning winners will see every cent of their money.
However, the National Lottery will only recognise one winner of the prize, so you cannot play the game as part of a syndicate.
