The clock is ticking on claiming two winning OLG tickets that are about to hit their expiration date.
It’s been nearly one year since the numbers of a $10,000 Encore prize were selected Nov. 8, 2024.
The winning selection, 0 – 4 – 1 – 9 – 8 – 2 – 8, was on a Lotto Max ticket sold in Toronto.
To claim the prize, the player must match the first six of the seven Encore numbers in exact order to win the $10,000 prize.
And an even bigger jackpot is waiting for someone to bring it home.
There are less than two weeks left to claim an $83,333.40 Lottario prize from a ticket sold in Hamilton on Nov. 9, 2024.
The winning numbers from that draw are 05 – 07 – 18 – 19 – 25 – 26 with the bonus number 27.
The ticket holder must match all six main draw numbers to win the top prize.
