Lotto 6/49 Player: In a remarkable turn of events, a simple $3 Lotto 6/49 ticket has transformed one Canadian’s life forever. The win comes during a weekend packed with high-stakes lottery draws, including Lotto Max and Lotto 6/49, where millions of dollars were up for grabs.
Lotto Max Draw Misses Jackpot, But Big Prizes Loom
On Friday, April 4, the Lotto Max draw featured a jaw-dropping $22 million jackpot. However, no player matched all seven winning numbers — 06, 18, 22, 40, 41, 43, and 46 — along with the bonus number 04. As a result, the jackpot rolled over once again, with the next draw on Tuesday, April 8 now expected to hit $27 million. The second prize, worth $165,056.90, also went unclaimed. Still, three fortunate players each matched six of the seven winning numbers, taking home $6,113.20 apiece.
There were no winners for the $500,000 Lotto Max Extra in B.C. or the $1 million Encore prize in Ontario this time around, but anticipation continues to grow for future draws.
