After back to back weeks without a grand prize winner, this Friday’s Lotto Max jackpot is going to be a big one.
No winning ticket was sold for the March 22 draw, worth $35.7-million, and no ticket matched all seven numbers for last Friday’s $50-million prize.
Without a grand prize winner for two weeks running, this means this Friday's draw will be for a whopping $55-million.
A $5 buy gets you a ticket featuring three sets of seven numbers, the odds that those seven digits will match the winning ticket are one in 28,633,528.
Lotto Max has a cap of $60-million for its jackpot.
Lotto 6-49 has no prize cap, its record jackpot occurred on April 13, 2013, where the grand prize was $63.4-million.
