Lottery Number Picker Biography
SuperLotto Plus is a California-only game played in the style of Mega Millions. SuperLotto Plus is drawn every Wednesday and Saturday. The game began in 1986 as California Super Lotto. In 2000, the name was changed to SuperLotto Plus. Its starting jackpot is $7 million (annuitized); a cash option is available for jackpot winners.
While the cash option usually is chosen, the SuperLotto Plus annuity is graduated; the first payment represents 2.5 percent of the annuity value (or share) of the jackpot, with the second installment 2.7 percent. The remaining 24 payments increase by 0.1 percentage point yearly, so that the final (26th) installment represents 5.1 percent of the prize. (The cash value of SuperLotto Plus usually is not advertised.)
Five numbers are selected from a set of 47 balls, while a Mega Number is chosen from a second set, of 27 balls. (This Mega Number is not to be confused with the gold-colored ball in Mega Millions, which also is known as the Mega Number.)
The California Lottery has offered a number of jackpot games, beginning with its "6-49" game in 1986, which became a 53-number game (drawing a seventh, "bonus" ball) in 1990, then changed again, to a 51-number game. The current variant, 5/47 + 1/27, began in 2000.
On February 16, 2002, the California Lottery's then-highest payout of $193 million was split by three tickets. Other big jackpots include $72 million in 2007 and $56 million in 1995.
Of California's drawing games, only Mega Millions (drawn in Atlanta) and SuperLotto Plus use "traditional" drawing mechanisms; the other games use a random number generator.
