CHERMSIDE AND ASPLEY AMONG LOTTO HOTSPOTS<\/strong><\/p>\n
Wednesday 15 January 2014<\/p>\n
Aspley and Chermside made the list of top 10 lotto hotspots\u00a0across\u00a0Queensland last year.<\/p>\n
In the 12 months to December 1, 2013, Queensland players won 69 division one prizes across all lotto products from Golden Casket, equating to more than $65 million in division one prize money.<\/p>\n
In the top 10 postcodes with most frequent division one wins across all lotto games, Chermside (4032) was ranked 5th with two wins totalling $2,806,218.20 (biggest win ($1,428,571.30) and Aspley (4034) was ranked 7th with two wins totalling $1,640,321.30 (biggest win $820,160.65).<\/p>\n
In the top 10 postcodes with highest total prize money won across all games, Chermside ranked 4th and Aspley 10th.<\/p>\n
The highest value prize won in Queensland during the year was a Saturday Gold Lotto Mid-Year Megadraw prize worth $2.5 million, with two winning tickets purchased in Springwood and Yamanto.<\/p>\n
Golden Casket spokesperson Belinda McDougall said that although postcode 4870 was the ‘Lotto Hotspot’ and Brisbane and suburbs was the ‘Lotto Hotspot Region’ for Queensland, it did not mean that a ticket purchased in either of those areas had more chance of winning than any other ticket.<\/p>\n
“It’s exciting to reveal where the most lotto wins occur each year, but it’s important to remember that every number on your ticket has an equal chance of being drawn, no matter where you buy your ticket,” Ms McDougall said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
