DUAL BONANZA FOR CANADIAN COUPLE

If good things come in threes, what's next for this household?

Although InfoPowa focuses on Internet gambling news, there are occasionally such great good fortune stories that they have to be told, and this was the case with Anthony and Antonietta Marrocco, a married couple from Caledon, Ontario who hit it big over the weekend, reports Canadian Press.

Enjoying a little R&R at Casino Rama in Orillia, Ontario the duo first struck it rich on a slot jackpot which gave them Cdn $13 000. That would be enough to make any weekend special, but Antonietta had a feeling that it was going to get better, and it did....big time!

Barely an hour after winning the casino jackpot, the Cdn $37 million Lotto 6/49 lottery draw took place - and the Marroccos held one of two winning tickets, delivering a bank busting Cdn $18.5 million to the couple, who own a construction company.

The Marroccos say with the money they will pay off debts, take care of their four children and three grandchildren and consider taking a holiday.
