And the cash comes simply in time for the 81-year-old West Coast Eagles and Perth Scorchers fan after a 12 months crammed with unbelievable household milestones.
“We’ve been having to buy an immense amount of presents lately,” Mr Vawser mentioned.
“We’ve had three grandchildren that have turned 21 this year and a son that’s turned 50. So it’s helped buy presents for them and get ready for Christmas.”
The humble grandfather can also be hoping to have a coastal getaway within the vacation season after the “amazing” win.
“I’ve not one anything hardly in my life,” he mentioned.
“So we will certainly have a holiday. A local holiday maybe up north to the Coral Coast.”
Mr Vawser bought into tipping via his ardour for the Eagles, and whereas that is his first try at predicting the tumultuous Big Bash League, he’s predicting one other trophy-laden marketing campaign for the Scorchers.
“They just lost (Mitch) Marsh, so that’s going to make things a bit harder for them, but they still have a good side, and I don’t think they rely on one man, and Bancroft is doing pretty well lately, so he might come good,” Mr Vawser mentioned.
“I just enjoy how my tipping compares with everyone else and how close I am.
“I will see how I go with it for the first time.”

The tipster with essentially the most appropriate weekly choices, with the sixes predication a tie-breaker, will obtain $1000, whereas the general champion will take house $15,000.
BBL|12 kicks off on Tuesday, December 13.
