The Powerball jackpot was won. Group T1 will wait until one of the US lottery jackpots reaches $100 million before playing again.

The Powerball jackpot rose to $141.4 million for the February 6 draw and set a new 9-roll record high. The previous record was $131.7 million.

The Powerball jackpot rose to $116.6 million for the February 3 draw and set a new 8-roll record high. The previous record was $114.4 million.

The Mega Millions jackpot rolled to $32 million for the February 9 draw and set a new 2-roll record high. The previous record was $31 milion.

The jackpot records are a direct result of the increased size of the player base. As of January 31, most US states that used to only sell Mega MIllions tickets, now also sell Powerball tickets. Also, most of the states that used to only sell Powerball tickets, now also sell Mega Millions tickets. The increased player base for both lotteries will result in larger jackpots.

Press release announcing the change.

The Lotto Max jackpot for the February 5 draw was not won and rolled to $30 million for the February 12 draw. Sales at $23.7 million were 8% higher than the previous week.

The payout was a low 37% and the jackpot was underfunded by sales by $1.6 million.

Lotto Max continues to be a very popular new game. The average weekly sales to date are $25.3 million compared to the weekly sales for Super 7 for its last 3 years at only $16.3 million.

The Lotto 649 jackpot for the January 23 draw was a bonus draw as suspected. That is, the jackpot was not fully funded by sales. An extra $1.3 million was added to the jackpot on top of what ticket sales contributed. The jackpot was won but the January 27 draw was not be a bonus draw. The jackpot is back to the normal Wednesday estimate of $3.5 million. The January 27 draw was not a bonus draw because the Lotto Max jackpot rolled to $20 million.

Invitation to Join
You are invited to join one or more of Mario's lottery groups. There are 6 regular groups to choose from. The groups buy tickets whenever the Canadian Lotto 649 jackpot is at least $25 million. The cost is $10 per share per month. On occasion, temporary groups are started to play Lotto 649 or other lotteries when the jackpots are large. You can get on the mailing list to be informed when a new temporary group is available. Please read the FAQ for more information.

There are no administration or hidden fees. There are no referral bonuses. Unlike most other online lottery groups, you do not get free tickets to encourage your friends to join. This is not a pyramid scheme. All monies collected are used to buy tickets. All prizes are either distributed to members or used to buy more tickets.
