Muhammad Mohin, a Bangladeshi carpenter working in Ajman, won Dh250,000 (68,073.52 USD approx.) in Big Ticket’s Formula One driver-themed game during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at Yas Marina Circuit. What makes his win even more remarkable is that it was his first time trying his luck with Big Ticket.
Onboard a Big Ticket yacht at the circuit, Mohin and other selected participants were asked to pick the name of a driver competing in the season finale race, Gulf News reported.
Later, Big Ticket’s team designated five finishing positions: 3, 6, 10, 13, and 18. Mohin’s random pick—Racing Bulls’ Liam Lawson, who finished 18th—landed him the Dh250,000 prize.
This game was part of the ‘Race and Luxury Yacht’ experience promotion.
Mohin said, “I never expected to win. I have been following the Grand Prix for the past 10 years. This is my first time cutting a Big Ticket, and I have won on my first attempt.”
Mohin, 30, plans to share the winnings with 72 family members, most of whom are new to Big Ticket.
“I think most of them are taking part for the first time,” he said.
The win has motivated him to continue attempting his luck.
“I will continue to buy tickets. This is a moment I am enjoying at Yas Marina Circuit, watching the Formula One race. These are experiences I never even dreamed of.”
