A man from Chicago resident has proved that luck is truly on his side after winning a hat-trick on the same lotto game, netting a total of 276,000 dollars.

After Christopher Kaelin's third win he had mistakenly read his ticket to believe he had won 25,000 dollars, but had actually won 250,000 dollars, Metro.co.uk reported.

Kaelin said that although he had landed a huge sum, it wasn't so big that it carried too hefty a tax burden.
