Was it you? A Canadian lottery player has woken up a millionaire after last night’s draw
Someone in Canada is waking up to amazing news this morning after a successful Lotto 6/49 draw.
The Lotto 6/49 classic and Gold Ball draw took place on Thursday, January 18.
While no one matched the winning lottery numbers for the $30 million Gold Ball jackpot, there were still some huge wins last night.

According to Play Now, someone in Western Canada is taking home the white ball jackpot worth $1 million after matching the numbers 27, 06, 56, 18, and the bonus number 01.
Sadly, lottery players failed to match the winning numbers for the Lotto 6/49 classic draw’s top prize of $5 million, which were 08, 10, 11, 25, 29, 37, and the bonus number 45.
But it wasn’t all a bust. One lucky Quebecer matched five out of six lottery numbers, including the bonus number, to win the second prize of $169,834.
The Classic Draw Extra top prize of $500,000 also remained unclaimed, with no one matching all of the numbers 11, 84, 94, and 95.
The next Lotto 6/49 draw is on Saturday, January 20, with a Gold Ball jackpot of $32 million.
If you didn’t beat the odds for Wednesday night’s draws, it’s worth checking to see if you’re the $70 million winner from Tuesday’s Lotto Max draw.
You can also try your luck in the next Lotto Max draw on Friday, January 19. The top prize is at an enormous $19 million.
You could reel in a massive lottery jackpot like this lucky fisherman.
Or take a well-deserved family trip like this manufacturing worker who won big after playing the instant Crossword game.
It might also be worth seeing if you have any old lottery tickets lying around — there’s an unclaimed $64 million Lotto 6/49 prize with the deadline quickly approaching.
