Two share Lotto Max Canada
16/08/2010 00:51:17
In an exciting twist for the weekend, two share the Lotto Max Canada each walking away with $25 million, tax free! However, as happened last time the $50 million was won, many of the Maxmillions jackpots rolled over on Friday evening and that means next week’s jackpot is still worth $36 million! It seems there’s no bringing this lottery jackpot down now, especially as it’s been over $30 million for almost three months!
Very many instant millionaires were created on Friday evening, boosted by the unique way in which the Lotto Max is held. The lottery jackpot can’t go over $50 million and that means when this happens, separate Maxmillions draws are held, each worth $1 million. This is the reason the Lotto Max Canada creates so many millionaires week on week and why it’s one of our favourite world lottery draws.
The notable winners from Friday’s Lotto Max Canada draw were the two main winners, each collecting $25 million each. Next up the 6/7 winner who collected $1.4 million and that was just from the main Lotto Max Canada draw.
Of the forty separate Maxmillions draws nine were won by single players, another three were split two ways with players collecting $500,000 each and another six lottery players who won a third share for a three way share of a Maxmillions jackpot.
All the other Maxmillions draws rolled over, creating the massive $36 million up for grabs next week but no one is complaining and it’s little wonder when you consider that eleven millionaires have been created, plus all the smaller winners!
