Payment Options


Group T24 will buy one ticket for the February 8 Powerball draw. The jackpot is an estimated $250 million.

The groups won $80 and 33 free tickets in the February 3 Lotto Max draw and $100 and 18 free tickets in the January 27 Lotto Max draw.


The $50 million Lotto Max jackpot for the February 3 draw was won - 3 winning tickets. Half of the 10 Maxmillions prizes were won. Sales of $59.5 million were 55% higher than average and 18% higher than the previous draw. There was a 66% chance the jackpot would not be won, a 27% chance of 1 winning ticket, a 6% chance of 2 winners and a 1% chance of 3 or more winners. The payout was 55%. The jackpot was underfunded from sales by $5.4 million. This is the second time there were 3 winning jackpot tickets.
The $6.7 million Lotto 649 jackpot for the February 4 draw was not won and is an estimated $11 million for the next draw. Sales of 7 million tickets were 22% lower than average and 23% higher than the previous draw. There was a 61% chance the jackpot would not be won, a 30% chance of 1 winning ticket and a 9% chance of 2 or more winners. The payout was a low 37%.
Invitation to Join
You are invited to join one or more of Mario's lottery groups. There are 10 regular groups to choose from. The groups buy tickets whenever the Lotto 649 jackpot is at least $20 million or the Lotto Max jackpot is $50 million. The regular groups are subscription based at a cost of $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.
