Famous not only for it's lottery ticket service, PlayHugeLottos.com brings other aspects of the lotto lifestyle to all of its players. Most recently, Mr. W. Ryczkowski from Poland took home first prize in the PlayHugeLottos.com Pick-your-Prize competition.

Of the 3 amazing prize options up for grabs (including VIP Rugby World Cup Final Tickets or 6000 GBP Cash), Mr. Ryczkowski selected the F1 Abu Dhabi as his preferred prize. He then chose to pass the prize on to his son and his son's wife.

Mr. J. Ryczkowski has provided us all with some inspirational photographs of his trip (compiled into a slide show below) and a fabulous description of his adventures in Abu Dhabi.

Thursday 10/11/2011

Mr. Ryczkowski and his lucky wife arrived in Dubai on Thursday morning. The couple immediately headed to Burj Al Arab (the 4th tallest hotel in the world) where they relaxed on a nearby beach for a couple of hours.

The rest of the day was then spent doing some of the necessary Dubai tourist excursions before heading to Abu Dhabi. These included:

Visiting the Burj Khalifa – the tallest building in the world. Mr. Ryczkowski  has assured us that the view from the top was absolutely breathtaking!

A trip to the Dubai Mall - featuring more than 1,200 stores and a host of world-class attractions (including a waterfall and an aquarium).

Stopping over on The Palm Jumeirah to view the unbelievable Atlantis Hotel.

Friday 11/11/2011

Mr. Ryczkowski and his wife celebrated the 'lucky number 11' day by attending the first practice session at Yas Marina Circuit. In the evening the couple attended a music concert at Yas Arena which they described as ‘astonishing’.

 

Saturday 12/11/2011

Gearing up for the big race day Mr. And Mrs. Ryczkowski spent the day sunbathing and relaxing by the pool before heading to the circuit to see the final qualifying session. The evening was again spent at a music concert, part of the F1 Concert Series featuring Britney Spears and Paul McCartney. The couple also finally managed to get a glimpse of the race circuit at night which they described as ‘very impressive’!

Sunday 13/11/2011

The day of the race arrived and according to the Ryczkowski’s the island was incredibly busy! They went to the track and watched the drivers track parade and the Etihad Air Show with Mr. Ryczkowski remarking how unusual it was to see “enormous airplanes which were quieter than small racing cars”.

Finally the race started and Mr. Ryczkowski had the following comments:

“It was fantastic - What a speed! What a noise! What a smell! It was a unique experience to be a part of that!”

Monday 14/11/2011

The Ryczkowski’s spent their final day in the UAE soaking up the fun at Ferrari World, including the following rides:

  • Formula Rossa rollercoaster – Accelerate up to 240km/h and see what 4.8 Gs really feels like!
  • Scuderia Challenge – The ultimate state-of-the-art racing simulations
  • Fiorano GT Challenge - Two competing rollercoasters race against each other. Each coaster car is a replica of a Ferrari F430 Spider

An Unforgettable Experience

As you can see, Mr. And Mrs. Ryczkowski had an absolutely amazing time attending the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. They had the time of their life and described the experience as “really unforgettable”!

 

Lucky Number 11

This Friday will be the 11th Day of the 11th Month of the year 2011 – 11/11/11. Could this be the perfect date to chance your luck on the Euromillions lottery?

As fans of the lottery and Euromillions in particular, we have to ask ourselves, “Are certain dates luckier than others” – especially certain date configurations? It would be hard to argue that the convergence of day, date and year could not serve as a sign of something special about to happen.

This could be a powerful day for all players of luck based games, not just lottery players. In fact, it might be worthwhile to consider all areas where you could include the number 11 into your life on this day. Are you having a dinner party on Friday night? Why not invite 11 people?

What is so special about the number 11?

The number 11 occurs repeatedly in life in relation to special events and has a unique significance for a number of reasons, including:

  • It is the first number that cannot be counted on a human’s two hands additively.
  • Most team sports have 11 players, including Soccer, Cricket, American Football and Hockey.
  • World War 1 ended on November 11th (Many people around the world observe a moments silence at 11am local time on November 11 each year in honour of soldiers who fought for their country).
  • Apollo 11 was the name of the spacecraft that carried the first astronauts to the Moon.
  • It is the first palindrome prime number e.g. 111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321

 

How can lottery players take advantage of this date?

As lottery players we are observers of luck and fate in life. We need to be aware of strange dates and number occurrences in life.

  • If you are trying your luck on Euromillions or Megamillions this Friday, then the number 11 might be worthwhile including in your entries.
  • If you are playing the Megamillions you can choose the number 11 in your main set of numbers AND for your Mega ball number.
  • If you are playing the Euromillions you can choose the number 11 in your main set of numbers and you can include the number 1 as one of your Star numbers. Or alternatively you can select the numbers 5 and 6 for your Star numbers (because they add up to 11).
  • Why not place 11 entries into your favourite lottery on Friday night?
  • Start a lottery pool containing 11 players and enter the Friday Euromillions draw.

 

Don’t wait for the 11th hour

The 11th Hour means leaving something for the last possible moment and it can often imply a situation of urgency or even an emergency. Make sure you don’t leave it to the 11th hour before playing your lottery numbers on Friday!

Who knows, checking the lotto results on the morning of the 12th November may just turn out to be one of your most memorable moments in life.
