Canada Lotto Record Jackpot
20th February 2009 5:39 PM
There’s a rush to buy tickets for the Canada Lotto 6/49 for tomorrow night after several rollovers have pushed the jackpot up to an estimated $48 million. It would be a Canada Lotto record jackpot if won by a single player breaking the old record of $43 million that was set just last month.
The midweek draw in the Canada Lotto 6/49 produced no winning tickets and that the jackpot for tomorrow night’s draw is an estimated $48 million, a staggering amount I’m sure you’d agree. It’s the highest ever estimated jackpot based on rollovers and could end up being much more than that as many Canadian syndicates wait for big jackpots to play in the lottery.

It still has a way to go to break the actual record though, that was $54.3 million shared by seventeen central Alberta Oil workers back in October 2005, but you never can tell just how high the jackpot is going to get as it all depends on ticket sales. Of course if it isn’t won tomorrow then Canadian’s may be looking at a record rollover jackpot well above $50 million for the midweek Canada Lotto 6/49 draw.
In buying trends for the Canada Lotto 6/49 past experience says that almost 50% of tickets are purchased on the day of the actual draw as lottery fever takes hold and temptation lures players into buying extra tickets for the draw.
The Canada Lotto 6/49 is played twice weekly every Wednesday and Saturday evening and to win you must match all six numbers chosen to the six of 49 numbers drawn in the draw. You can purchase tickets for this bumper lottery draw by clicking the banner above.
