A Tasmanian man has won a $2 million Father's Day payoff after playing the same numbers for decades.

The man plans to spend his winnings on his children.
"I'll help my children first, and then after that, I don't really know. Maybe some holidays around Australia," he said.
Sorrel Lucky Agency manager Debbie O'Shea, whose staff member sold the winning entry, said she was celebrating.
