How to Play Australia Monday and Wednesday Lotto?
The Basics
Australia Monday and Wednesday
Lotto are pretty easy to pick up and play. The mechanics are dead simple: you
pick six numbers from a selection pool ranging from 1 to 45, while two
supplementary digits—which determine who wins in certain non-jackpot tiers—are
given during the Draw.
To win the jackpot, you must
match all six numbers, while matching five plus one or two
supplementary numbers will net you the second prize. You can win six prize tiers, and you only need to match one or two of your
numbers plus two supplementary numbers to win the lowest prize tier.
Regarding prizes, Australia
Monday & Wednesday Lotto is different from most lottery games in that the
jackpots don't fluctuate—they are of a fixed amount. You're looking at an
AU$1,000,000 top prize for every Draw. This also means that jackpots don't roll
over. Every now and then, super draws are held. These unique draws can
offer up to AU$5 million in jackpot prizes.
Australia Monday & Wednesday Lotto Odds of Winning
Australia Monday & Wednesday
Lotto's are generally favourable. For instance, you have a 1 in 8,145,060 chance
of winning the jackpot. If you compare that with the odds of, say, the US
Powerball—with its 1 in 292,201,338 chance of winning the jackpot—you'll
immediately see that the difference is night and day as odds go. Even though Ontario 49—a more minor game like Australia Monday and
Wednesday Lotto—still has longer odds slightly. Check out the table below to

So What Happens if You Win?
Because of the unique prize
structure of Australia Monday and Wednesday Lotto, winning the fixed jackpot
comes with a few caveats. For starters, if there are more than four jackpot
winners, the jackpot will climb to AU$4 million and be divided accordingly
among them. However, if there are four or fewer winning ticket holders, each winner will receive AU$1 million.
Two more things worth noting
about Australia Monday & Wednesday Lotto: all prizes are 100% tax-free and
paid in lump sum form. That said, if you played this game using an online
lottery service, then a commission
fee might be deducted from your winnings depending on the rules of the lottery site. Plus, living in another country might also have to deal with your local tax laws. At least you won't have
to worry about tax withholdings at the source.
The Biggest Australia Monday & Wednesday Lotto Winners
Thanks to favourable odds,
Australia Monday and Wednesday Lotto has produced many millionaires over the
years. Here are some of the more recent $1 million winners:
An ACT shopper became one of the
four jackpot winners for the September 11, 2017 draw, which means he would have
taken home AU$1,000,000. I say "would have" because his luck didn't end
there—his system entry won several lower-tier prizes as well! As a
result, he took home $1,001,333.60.
A Canberra man—who wishes to stay
anonymous—once won AU$22.25 in Australia's Saturday Lotto and thought that, all
things considered, it was a pretty good win. Little did he know that, on June
19, 2017, his definition of a "good win" would be challenged. After all, the
man had just won the coveted AU$1,000,000 Australia Monday Lotto jackpot!
A syndicate group of 10, who
bought their tickets at Canley Vale, won the AU$1M jackpot on May 24, 2017. The
syndicate was the only top prize winner on that particular Draw.
Three retired friends won the
AU$1,000,000 top prize on May 8, 2017. The women—all wishing to remain
anonymous—bought their winning ticket at the Engadine Central Newsagency at
the Engadine Central Shopping Centre.
