The Big One On Wednesday

It’s an exciting week for many who regularly buy lottery tickets as the maximum Big Wednesday draw must be hit this week. You’ll be able to see the Big Wednesday Results on the NZS.com New Zealand Lotto pages following the draw.

Last week (Draw #191) was the final week where the jackpot could have gone before it reached its maximum allowed level of $30 million. There was no 1st Division winner, so the jackpot rolled over to a “must go”.

On the MyLotto.co.nz website the must win jackpot work is described as follows;

If the cash prize component of the prize reaches $30 million and there is no First Division winner, Big Wednesday must be won, therefore the First Division prize is added to the next lowest prize division which has one or more winning tickets.

Good luck if you’re buying a ticket and if you’re a keen fan of the games, you can bookmark the New Zealand Lotto pages or read more about the History of Lotto on NZS.com.
