Georgia Lottery schedules Jumbo Bucks Lotto BOGO promo

ATLANTA — During a routine internal review of the Feb. 23 Jumbo Bucks Lotto with Ca$h Match game, Georgia Lottery officials determined that a programming error occurred with a limited number of tickets. The error only impacted tickets purchased Feb. 22 or Feb. 23 with the Ca$h Match add-on feature and limited players to $1 or $2 instant-win Ca$h Match prizes.

There was no impact to the Jumbo Bucks Lotto base game, and all tickets for the Feb. 23 Jumbo Bucks Lotto drawing were eligible to win the Jumbo Bucks Lotto jackpot prize.

The Georgia Lottery takes the security and integrity of its games very seriously and is offering players an extra chance to win. The Georgia Lottery will offer a “buy one, get one free” promotion Monday, March 2 for that night’s drawing.

Players who purchase a single-play Jumbo Bucks Lotto ticket Monday – with or without the Ca$h Match option – will receive a free Jumbo Bucks Lotto ticket for Monday’s drawing.

Jumbo Bucks Lotto with Ca$h Match is a new game available only in Georgia. The game combines a classic lotto draw game with an instant-win component.

Jumbo Bucks Lotto with Ca$h Match went on sale at Georgia Lottery retailers statewide Feb. 22. The first drawing was conducted Feb. 23. Drawings are held at 11 p.m. Mondays and Thursdays.

The jackpot for Monday’s Jumbo Bucks Lotto with Ca$h Match drawing is an estimated $1.2 million.
