Lotto Doubler gives you the chance to double your winnings whenever you purchase a Lotto ticket. Through a random process, the Lottery will designate certain Lotto tickets as Doubler Tickets. These will be identified with the message, "THIS IS A DOUBLER TICKET!" Whenever you purchase a Lotto ticket that has this message printed on it and you win a non-jackpot prize, your prize will be doubled! Best of all... The Doubler is Free! There is no additional cost for having the Doubler feature, so you'll have the chance to double your non-jackpot winning all for still $1 per two plays. |
