Lotto MAX has been a hot topic over the past more than a month up until its last draw when the lucky numbers matched those printed on a ticket sold in Oshawa. This means that at the moment one Ontarian is eligible for the generous CA$55-million jackpot and it is only a matter of time before the lucky player contacts Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation and claims the hefty prize.
Ever since the last days of February, all eyes have been set on Lotto MAX, which is the most popular lottery game for a reason. February 22 was a special day for someone in British Columbia, as the jackpot hit then reached CA$25.9 million. This was the last Lotto MAX jackpot up until this Friday and the latest regular draw, which changed one playerās life forever. Now it is time for another devoted player to bag their fortune.
Long-Anticipated Jackpot Hit Changes a Life
Players from across the country have been eyeing the lottery game and every single Friday individuals from across Canada have been eagerly anticipating the regular draw. One of them who had purchased a ticket in Oshawa saw Lady Luckās smile. The fortunate ticket sold has the numbers 01-02-16-21-23-25-28 plus the bonus one 48 printed on itself.
For matching all seven of the regular numbers drawn, the ticket is considered valid. Once the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation checked its database the single-winning ticket was confirmed and the information was issued publicly.
