A stunned¹ Sydney man who was celebrating an Australian lottery² windfall could not believe it when he won again less than a week later.

悉尼一名男子在庆祝自己中彩票大发横财之际，他肯定不会想到，他在此后不到一周的时间里居然会再次中彩票。

The unidentified man, in his 40s and from the suburb³ of Bondi, picked up Aus$1,020,487 on May 7th and then scooped⁴ another Aus$1,457,834 on May 12th.

这名未具身份的男子现年40多岁，来自邦迪郊区。他于7日赢得1020487澳元，之后于12日又赢得了1457834澳元。

"I just thought this is too good to be true," he said after being informed of his good fortune.

在被通知中彩后他表示：“我只是觉得这事好得令人难以置信。”

"The chances of winning twice in such a short period of time must be non-existent. I wish I had some advice to others on how to win the lottery, but I don't."

“能在这么短的时间内中两次彩的机会肯定微乎其微，我很希望自己能为其他人提供一些如何中彩的建议，可我没有。”

Asked what he would do with the cash, he said he plans to invest in some Sydney real estate⁵, buy a new car and "a holiday to Honolulu".

当被问及怎么用这笔钱时，该男子称，打算用它来投资部分悉尼房产，买辆新车，再去檀香山度个假。

Lottery organizers could not estimate the likelihood of winning twice in a week, but the odds⁶ of winning once are one in 1.845 million.

彩票的供应方无法估计在一周内两次中奖的可能性，但一次中奖的几率是184.5万分之一。

"We don't know of anyone else who has won twice in a week," NSW Lotteries⁷ spokesman Matt Hart told AFP.

新南威尔士彩票公司的发言人马特·哈特向《法新社》透露：“我们不知道还有谁在一周内中了两次彩票。”
