The National Lottery has revealed that players in both counties have reason to celebrate today with a Kerry punter netting a whopping €289,861 for matching five numbers plus the bonus ball.
Meanwhile, over in the Model County, someone bagged €250,000 by matching all six numbers on the Lotto Plus Two draw.
