So, let's discuss some of the details about this new lottery game, including how to play, and the prizes to be won. We'll also give you some tips on how to improve your chances of winning.
The Daily Grand is a game that offers players the chance to win up to CAD 1,000 a day for life. The game is played by choosing five numbers between 1 and 49 and one "Grand' number between one and seven (or requesting a ticket where all selections are generated by computer). If you match all six numbers, you will win the jackpot!
The Daily Grand winning numbers are drawn every Monday and Thursday night at approximately 10:30 pm ET. You can check the latest results of Daily Grand here:
Tickets cost CAD 3.00 per play and can be bought online or from lottery retailers in Canada.
Playing the Daily Grand is easy – simply choose five numbers between one and forty-nine, and then pick one grand number between one and seven. You can either choose your numbers or opt for a quick pick that will randomly generate numbers for you.
To get a jackpot, you should match all 5 numbers of the Main Selection plus the Grand Number (Grand Number).
The odds of winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 13 million, so it is quite a difficult task. However, there are smaller prizes available for matching five or four numbers. The odds of winning any prize are approximately 1 in 6.8.
The Daily Grand offers a number of different prizes, depending on how many numbers you match. If you match all six numbers (5+1), you will win the jackpot. That means you will receive CAD 1,000 every day for the rest of your life. The second prize is CAD 25,000 a year for life for matching only your 5 main numbers without the Grand number. Each of these prizes is paid at intervals determined by The Interprovincial Lottery Corporation (ILC), but the winner can ask for a lump sum of CAD 7 million or CAD 500,000, respectively. However, it is important to notify the lottery operator of this decision within 60 days after the win.
There are also smaller prizes for matching five, four, and three numbers. And if you just match the grand number, you will win a free ticket to play again.
