Sizzler Feature Multiplies Prizes by Three
Net Revenues Support Legislative Lottery Scholarships January 3, 2008
ALBUQUERQUE The New Mexico Lottery today introduced a feature that will give Hot Lotto® players a chance to win larger prizes.
Called Sizzler, the feature will automatically multiply all non-jackpot prizes by three on every drawing. With Sizzler, a winning $10,000 Hot Lotto ticket will be multiplied into a $30,000 prize. The Sizzler feature costs an additional $1 per play and is available now at 1,100 lottery retailers statewide.
To play Hot Lotto, players select five numbers from one to 39 and one Hot Ball number from one to 19. Each play is priced at $1. Players can win prizes by matching their numbers to the numbers drawn in one of nine ways. Hot Lotto jackpots start at $1 million and increase by at least $50,000 per drawing until someone wins. Drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday evenings.
The New Mexico Lottery had its first Hot Lotto jackpot winner in August 2007 when Edward Boyd of Farmington matched the drawn numbers of 3, 11, 18, 34, 38 and the red Hot Lotto of 3. Boyd and a player in Minnesota shared the estimated $2 million annuity jackpot equally.
