Playing Lottery in Canada

There are two major lotteries in Canada as well five lotteries held in the provinces. The two major lotteries are Lotto 6/49 and Canada's Super Seven. These are all available in the entire Canada. The payouts in these lotteries are bigger than the ones in the provinces. The jackpot increases faster than most of the games played in Canada. The other five lotteries held in the provinces are held in British Columbia, Western Canada, Ontario, Atlantic Canada and Quebec.

The 6/49 Lotto is one of Canada's most lucrative game for lottery players. In 2005 a player won the highest payout given so far amounting to almost fifty five million dollars. The winner only bought the ticket for two dollars and it gave him so much moe in the end. Playing this lottery is just easy players start by selecting six numbers from one up to forty nine. Matching two numbers and the other ball called the bonus will automatically give you a prize which winners can claim at the shop they bought the ticket from.

The next most exciting lottery for Canadians is called Super seven. This is known as the game held every Friday. A ticket costs only two dollars and gives the opportunity for players to win a huge payout. A record was broken in 2002 when someone won almost thirty eight million dollars. Players can also pay more for an additional feature called Friday's extra where they can win the major prize which can cost two hundred fifty thousand dollars. Playing Super seven is easy you just need to choose seven numbers. Matching three of the drawn numbers will already give a prize to the player. The draws are held each Friday in the evening.

Five provinces in Canada also have their own lotteries. In Atlantic Canada there are ten choices of lottery games. In BC or British Columbia there are six lottery games which can give fun to the residents. In Ontario thirteen lottery games are being played. Western Canada has seven lottery games. Quebec is the province with the most number of lottery games to select from.

Canada also has its own website where people from anywhere can learn more on the lotteries that Canada has. The website explains the different ways to buy your tickets. It also gives an insight or introduction to each of the games.

Canadian residents should not feel bored when they have nothing to do. If you are from Canada you just need to buy one ticket to stand the rare chance of winning lots of money. The excitement itself is already a reward.
