Canada Lotto 6/49

The largest jackpot ever paid out by a Canada lottery, was $54.3 million and happened in 2005. The lottery that paid it out was Lotto 649 - the most popular Canada lotto game. The name 649 also explains the rules of this game, as a player needs to correctly pick 6 out of 49 numbers to win the jackpot. Lotto649 has been running since June 1982 and was the first nationwide Canadian lottery to give players the choice of selecting their own numbers - rather than just taking part in a random raffle. We do not offer any betting on Canada lotto 649 - but instead you can try the North American giants Powerball and Mega Millions.
