Lotto Max jackpot soars to $60 million after no winner
With a gigantic jackpot to be won, there’s no doubt that all eyes were on the prize during the recent Lotto Max draw.
The draw took place on Tuesday, April 22, and the top prize was $55 million. Hopeful Canadian lottery players will have to try again because, according to PlayNow, no one matched the seven winning numbers: 05, 19, 25, 31, 34, 38, and 48, and the bonus number 15.
It wasn’t the luckiest of draws because no one won the second prize of $196,985.70. Thirty-five people matched six of the seven winning numbers to win the third prize. Split between them, each will receive a $5,628.20 prize.
At the time, there were four Maxmillions prizes to be won, each worth $1 million. The winning numbers were:
- 2 4 11 17 20 38 46
