$42M Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball winning ticket sold in Niagara Falls
The jackpot is one of the largest since the Gold Ball Draw was introduced in 2022.
A $64 million winning ticket is the current record jackpot for the Gold Ball, sold in New Brunswick’s Gloucester County in early April during a 6/49 draw with one of the largest payouts in Canada in nearly seven-and-a-half years. The Lotto 6/49 format changed in September, with the main “Classic Draw” — where players select their numbers or choose a quick pick — fixed at a $5-million jackpot.Story continues below advertisement
The Gold Ball Draw guarantees that a winner will take home either $1 million or a growing jackpot that starts at $10 million and can exceed $60 million, the OLG said. The Gold Ball jackpot continues to grow by $2 million in each draw until it is won. It starts with 30 balls: 29 white balls representing a $1 million prize and one gold ball representing the jackpot. If a white ball is drawn, the guaranteed $1 million prize is won and that ball is removed while the jackpot grows by $2 million. The process continues until the gold ball is drawn and the jackpot is won.
