On top of that, there are four additional Maxmillions prizes to be won for this draw, each worth a cool $1 million.</p><p>Got your tickets ready? Let's take a look at the latest results and see if this could be your lucky day.</p><h3>What are the Lotto Max winning numbers for Tuesday, October 8?</h3><br/><p> The Lotto Max winning numbers for the Tuesday, October 8 draw are: <strong>10</strong>, <strong>11</strong>, <strong>13</strong>, <strong>20</strong>, <strong>22</strong>, <strong>27</strong> and <strong>48</strong>. The bonus number is<strong> 21</strong>. </p><p>While no one managed to claim the $55 million jackpot this time around, 31 players came close by matching six of the seven numbers, each snagging a prize of $6,542.50.</p><p> As for Maxmillions, these were the winning numbers:</p><ul><li>02-06-12-19-22-31-45</li><li>03-15-19-29-40-43-48</li><li>05-15-30-32-40-42-46</li><li>10-16-24-27-29-35-50</li></ul><p>With no jackpot winner this time around, the prize will roll over to Friday, October 11, with an estimated $60 million up for grabs, plus six Maxmillions worth $1 million each. You've got until 10:30 p.m. ET on Friday to get your tickets for that draw.</p><h3>What were the Lotto Max winning numbers for Friday, October 4?</h3><br/><p>The winning numbers for Lotto Max's Friday, October 4 were <strong>02</strong>, <strong>09</strong>, <strong>20</strong>, <strong>27</strong>, <strong>40</strong>, <strong>45</strong> and <strong>49</strong>.

So if you haven't checked your Friday ticket yet, now's the time to do it!</p><h3>How does Lotto Max work?</h3><br/><p>Lotto Max is one of Canada's biggest lottery games, with draws taking place every Tuesday and Friday.</p><p>Each $5 play gives you three sets of seven numbers ranging from 1 to 50. To score a prize, you need to match three to seven numbers in one set with the numbers drawn. Some prize tiers also use a bonus number, which is picked alongside the regular numbers.</p><p>The prize amounts vary based on ticket sales and are split between winners in each prize category. Here's a general idea of what you can expect for matching numbers:</p><ul><li>7/7 (jackpot) — an average of $47.5 million</li><li>6/7 plus bonus — an average of $194,405</li><li>6/7 — an average of $4,629 </li><li>5/7 plus bonus — an average of $926 </li><li>5/7 — an average of $105 </li><li>4/7 plus bonus — an average of $50 </li><li>4/7 — $20 fixed prize</li><li>3/7 plus bonus — $20 fixed prize</li><li>3/7 — free play </li></ul><p>The Lotto Max jackpot starts at $10 million and can grow as high as $80 million if it's not won. Once the jackpot reaches $50 million, Maxmillions are added — additional $1 million prizes that players can win.</p><p>All three sets of numbers on your $5 ticket are entered into the main draw, and if there are Maxmillions, those are included too. To win a Maxmillions prize, you'll need to match all seven numbers in a set.</p><p>Tickets can be purchased until 10:30 p.m. ET on the night of the draw.</p><p>The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 33,294,800, but your chances of winning any prize are roughly 1 in 7.</p><p>Good luck, Canada!</p><p><em>If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, refer to <a href="https://aidejeu.ca/en/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">these resources available across Quebec</a>.
