How to Play
All you need to do is pay $1 per line and pick five numbers from 1 to 45 or opt for a Quick Pick.
Choose whether to play the Midday or Evening draw, or both.
Win a prize if you match at least two of your numbers to the Lucky Day Lotto numbers drawn by the Lottery. If you match all five winning numbers, you've hit the jackpot!
EZmatch
If you're looking for an instant win of up to $5,000 before the draw even takes place, add EZmatch to your ticket - it offers you a shot at snapping up some cash while you wait for the Lucky Day Lotto numbers.
When you pay an extra $1 per play, you'll have a second set of numbers generated on your ticket and each number will have a cash value assigned to it. If any number in the second EZmatch set matches any of your Lucky Day Lotto numbers, you'll win cash right there and then!
