How to Play Quebec 49
Quebec 49 works in a very similar way to Lotto 6/49, as you still have to pick six numbers from 1 to 49 and the cut-of time for ticket sales is still 10:30 PM Eastern Time on Wednesdays and Saturdays. However, it only costs $1 per play and the prizes are slightly different.
You can play Quebec 49 without taking part in Lotto 6/49, or vice versa. Here are the prize categories for Quebec 49.
| Category | Odds of Winning | Percentage of Prize Fund |

The top prize stays at $2 million in each draw and is shared between players if there are multiple winners. The total that can be paid out in the second category is $450,000, so if there are more than six winners this will need to be split between all those matching five main numbers and the Bonus Ball.
