While no one scored the record-breaking $70 million in Friday’s Lotto Max draw, someone who bought their ticket in Richmond is now a little bit richer.
The ticket, with numbers 9, 38, 41, 42, 43, 46 and 49, won a $500,000 Maxmillion prize, according to the Lotto Max website.
An Ontario ticket also won with the same numbers.
Eight out of a total 26 Maxmillion prizes, at $1 million each, were won in last nights draw. Those prizes will be split among 13 winning ticket holders in Ontario, B.C., Atlantic Canada, the Prairies and Quebec.
The $70 million remains up for grabs in the next Lotto Max draw on Jan. 7, which will also have 25 Maxmillion prizes.
