Or something like that.
It's actually 1:85,900,584 60 times.

Lotto puts the odds at 1:28,633,528 because there are three numbers per ticket, they divide the actual odds by three. The odds of one set of numbers hitting are actually 1:85,900,584.

Still fun to play, but I think my odds are pretty low, Moose Jaw has already had a lot of big winners.
