Lotto Max Western Canada Review
Canada's Lotto Max is a relatively new game to the country. Starting in September 2009, replacing what was formerly the Lotto Super-7, the Lotto Max has become one of the biggest jackpot games that Canada has to offer.
Lotto Max Western Canada Tickets – Get 'Em While They're Hot
Drawings for the Lotto Max occur only once weekly, a rarity in the jackpot world. Tickets go on sale at 9:00 PM eastern time, and the picture takes place shortly after.
It's a reasonably expensive lottery jackpot game as you have to fork over $5 for three sets of numbers. Players are charged with picking seven numbers between 1-49 for each location, meaning you're picking 21 numbers altogether. You must match all seven numbers to win the major jackpot, and your odds of doing so come at a manageable odds rate of 1 in 28,633,528. I say 'manageable' odds because the Powerball, a comparable jackpot game based in the United States, has staggering odds of 1 in 175 Million.
Numbers Matched | Prize | Odds of Winning |
7 Numbers | Jackpot or share of 87% of Pools Fund | 1 in 28,633,528 |
6 Numbers + Bonus Number | Win or share of 4% of Pools Fund | 1 in 4,090,506.5 |
6 Numbers | Win or share of 4% of Pools Fund | 1 in 99,768.7 |

3 Numbers + Bonus Number | C$20.00 | 1 in 77.08 |
3 Numbers | Free Play | 1 in 8.421 |

Maxmillions Adds Unique Concept to Lotto Max Western Canada
One thing that separates Lotto Max from some of the significant jackpots throughout other countries is their Maxmillions concept. Maxmillions comes into play whenever the Lotto Max jackpot stretches above a $50 Million jackpot. Once this happens, separate drawings take place for every million over $50 Million, in which players can win $1 Million for matching 7 out of 7 numbers. If the jackpot reaches $55 Million, there would be five separate Maxmillions drawings for $1 Million each and then the usual Lotto Max drawing for $50 Million.
Your Lotto Max ticket can be used for Maxmillions, so there's no need to purchase more tickets. It's basically just a concept to give you more opportunities to win, although you still have to match the same numbers as you would win the major jackpot. Imagine hitting that $1 Million Maxmillions jackpot instead of the $50 Million major jackpot. That'd be awful, wouldn't it? I can find room for $1 Million in my wallet.
Lotto Max Western Canada is Tax-Free!!!
One of the significant parts of winning the lottery in Canada is that your winnings are tax-free, meaning you get to take it all home. Obviously, international players are subject to their own country's tax laws. Sorry US players looking to sneak in a few more jackpot games…
Who's In Charge of Lotto Max?
The Interprovincial Lottery Corporation oversees the day-to-day operations of Lotto Max. They are also in charge of one of the other big Canadian jackpot games, Lotto 6/49.
Lotto Max Scam Scene
Like any jackpot game, Lotto Max has its fair scams. The most recent one comes after Tom Crist, a Canadian native, won the jackpot and pledged to give away $40 million of his winnings to charity. Soon after, scammers were emailing multiple US residents going through hard times, claiming that they were Crist and were willing to give $2 million to help get the families through their tough times. The only catch associated with receiving the $2 million was that the families would have to pay $550 for insurance and banking costs. As you would expect, transferring the $550 would be the last contact the hardship families would have with the con artists.
The lesson I'd hope people would learn from scams like this is always to be skeptical. You have to be gullible to get hit with a scam like this. Do your due diligence before even thinking about sending any money whatsoeveC'monmon people!!
Final Evaluation of Lotto Max
While there are better jackpot games, Lotto Max provides an intriguing and unique option.
Pros:
Maxmillions provides more chances to win
Three sets of numbers per ticket
Tax-free!!
Large jackpot winnings
Cons:
$5 Ticket
Only one drawing per week
Tickets are an absolute must-have whenever the jackpot exceeds the $50 million mark and forces the extra Maxmillions drawings. StilI'mI’s going to be sticking to buying them once or twice a month otherwise.
