The unnamed man won more than $180,000 saying he did not have any definite plans just yet to spend the money.
He held the only division one winning entry in Super 66 draw 4169, drawn Saturday July 3 and took home a division one prize of $182,063.75.
He said he didn't play lottery games regularly, so his prize came as a shock.
The winning entry was purchased online at thelott.com - Australia's official lotteries.
Confirming his prize with an official from The Lott this morning, the winner explained he'd spent the weekend celebrating his unexpected windfall.
"Fantastic! I checked the ticket on Saturday night, and I couldn't believe it," he said.
"I had a little bit of a celebration. It's great news for me. I don't play very often, so it was a lovely surprise."
With his lottery fortune about to hit his bank account, the Mount Isa man said he'd spend the week deciding what to do with his prize.
"I'm not sure at this stage," he said.
"I'm going to have to have a good think, but I have no doubt I will enjoy it."
The winning numbers in Super 66 draw 4169 on 3 July 2021 were 4, 4, 0, 3, 3, and 2.
