A CHINESE lottery player has won the country's largest individual lottery prize -- nearly 360 million yuan (US$52.7 million).
The unidentified buyer from Anyang City in central China's Henan Province reaped the prize after buying 44 identical "Double Color Ball" tickets issued by the China Welfare Lottery at a cost of 176 yuan on Thursday, the provincial welfare lottery center said.
The buyer chose the same two sets of two-digit numbers on each ticket, which brought his total number of stakes to 88.
A total of 93 top prizes were awarded in Thursday's lottery. The other five winners were from Shanghai, Beijing, Heilongjiang, Guangxi and Shaanxi.
The previous lottery record was held by a player in Jiayuguan in northwest China's Gansu Province who won 113.8 million yuan in November 2007.
The welfare lottery center in Henan has held a meeting to discuss how to best protect the winner's privacy and ensure his or her safety.
