Australian Lotteries – Super 66
Australian Lotteries – Super 66
Run by Tatts Group, Super 66 is played in all states except New South Wales and is drawn every Saturday night before the main Saturday Lotto draw. In Super 66, a six-digit number is randomly generated for us, compiled from six individual balls numbered 0 to 9, each from different compartments in a machine. Tickets cost one dollar plus agent’s commission.
Super 66 is smaller than other Australian lotteries and acts more as a supplementary game to games like Tattslotto, Oz Lotto and Powerball (rather than being its own standalone game), though some states allow it to be played separately. The more numbers you successfully match in order, the more money you win. Note: Fixed divisional winnings will always involve matching at least the first two or last two digits in the winning combinations.

The minimum guaranteed Division 1 prize pool of Super 66 is $16,666, and if no one wins that prize, the jackpot rolls over to the next draw. The jackpot can only roll over a maximum of 25 times, so if no one has won Division 1 by the 26th draw, a winner will be determined by the next highest prize division.
How To Play
You can opt to buy a Super 66 ticket and use it in conjunction with another lottery of your choice, or choose to buy a Super 66 ticket and use it as its own individual lottery entry. Either way, you are aiming to match as many of your six-digit numbers as possible, with the six numbers drawn. To score the Division 1 fixed prize, you have to match the winning number combination with your entry exactly. Lower fixed prizes can be claimed if at least your first two or last two numbers match:
Division (Winning Probability), Your Matching Super 66 Numbers (The Fixed Prize)
Using the winning combination 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 as the example:
| Division | Odds |
|---|---|
| 1 | (1 in 1,000,000) 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ($16,666.00 or more) |
| 2 | (1 in 55,556) 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, x OR x, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ($6,666.00) |
| 3 | (1 in 5,556) 6, 5, 4, 3, x, x OR x, x, 4, 3, 2, 1 ($666.00) |
| 4 | (1 in 556) 6, 5, 4, x, x, x OR x, x, x, 3, 2, 1 ($66.00) |
| 5 | (1 in 56) 6, 5, x, x, x, x OR x, x, x, x, 2, 1 ($6.60) |
Any Other Prize (1 in 50), and prizes differ.
If you chose 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 as your winning numbers and those numbers were drawn in that exact order, you would win the Division 1 jackpot. If you had chosen 6, 5, 9, 1, 7 and 3 as your winning numbers, you would have won Division 5, as your first two numbers matched. You would also have won Division 5 if your last two digits were the two which matched.
Adding a Super 66 entry to your QuickPicks or marked coupons essentially adds another chance for you to win when you play other lottery games. If you want to play Super 66 in conjunction with another lottery, you’ll need to tick a box on your ticket/s, or you can ask for it to be added to your QuickPicks.
