Canadians across the country are buzzing with excitement as they gear up for a shot at the record-breaking $90 million Lotto Max jackpot up for grabs in this week’s draw on Friday night.
This historic jackpot has shattered previous Canadian lottery records, surpassing the former $85 million mark. A single ticket matching all the winning numbers could land the lucky winner the largest lottery prize in Canadian history.
But that’s not all – in addition to the jaw-dropping $90 million main jackpot, players will also be vying for 18 MAXMILLIONS prizes, each valued at a cool $1 million, as well as 90 MAXPLUS prizes, each worth $100,000. The total prize pool for Friday’s draw is estimated to reach a staggering $117 million.
The anticipation for this massive jackpot has been building since the previous draw on Tuesday night, where the grand prize went unclaimed, causing the jackpot to roll over and swell to its current epic amount.
While the big jackpot eluded players on Tuesday, there were still some fortunate winners across Ontario. Two MAXMILLIONS tickets boasting $1 million each were snapped up in Whitby and Hamilton, while Toronto and Mississauga saw a pair of shared MAXMILLIONS prizes, each worth $500,000.
Meanwhile, a dozen MAXPLUS prizes, each valued at $100,000, found their way to lucky ticket holders in various locations across the province. Additionally, two second-prize Lotto Max tickets worth $81,541.10 each were claimed in York Region and Willowdale.
To top it off, three ENCORE prizes, each worth $100,000, were claimed in Stouffville, Ajax, and through OLG.ca, adding more excitement to the mix.
