The Commission must ensure that a playslip for Saturday lotto, Monday lotto, Wednesday lotto, Oz lotto, powerball and Soccer Pools display —
(a) such details to facilitate entry in super 66; and
(b) such instructions to subscribers in super 66,
as the Commission considers necessary.
(1) A person may request an entry in a super 66 draw in conjunction with an entry in a game of lotto or in Soccer Pools.
[(1a),(1b) deleted] (2) A person may orally request an entry in the super 66 draw to be held on a particular Saturday without entering a game of lotto or Soccer Pools.
(3) A subscriber may choose to enter a maximum of 50 super 66 games as part of each oral request for an entry in super 66 in conjunction with a game of lotto or Soccer Pools.
(3a) A subscriber who enters a super 66 draw by marking a playslip is limited to selecting one of the choices of numbers of games of super 66 that are marked on the playslip.
(4) A subscriber may enter a super 66 draw —
(a) if the entry is made in conjunction with a game of lotto or Soccer Pools, by —
(i) marking the appropriate box on a playslip for Saturday lotto, Monday lotto, Wednesday lotto, Oz lotto, powerball or Soccer Pools; or
(ii) requesting the required number of super 66 games when making an oral request for entry in Saturday lotto, Monday lotto, Wednesday lotto, Oz lotto, powerball or Soccer Pools;
or
(b) if the entry is made without being in conjunction with a game of lotto or Soccer Pools — by making an oral request; or
(c) in either case — using the “ticket repeat” method set out in rule 5A,
and paying $1.00 for each super 66 game to be entered.
(4A) A person may enter super 66 by redeeming a promotional coupon and, in that case, may be required to pay less than the amount payable under subrule (4).
(5) Where a subscriber enters super 66 in conjunction with a multiweek lotto or pools entry, the super 66 entry is to be entered in the super 66 draw for each week in which that lotto or pools entry is entered.
(1) A person may enter a super 66 draw by presenting an existing receipted ticket and requesting the same type of super 66 entry.
(2) If a receipted ticket linked to a player’s card number is used to generate a repeat entry under subrule (1), that ticket does not continue to be linked to the number unless the subscriber’s player’s card is presented as well.
(1) Where an agent generates a receipted ticket from a playslip for, or in response to an oral request for an entry in, Saturday lotto, Monday lotto, Wednesday lotto, Oz lotto, powerball or Soccer Pools and the subscriber has indicated that he or she wishes to enter super 66, the agent must also generate a receipted ticket for each super 66 entry in accordance with the subscriber’s instructions and give it or them to the subscriber.
(1A) Where a person redeems a promotional coupon in accordance with these rules and the terms on which the promotional coupon is issued, the agent must generate a receipted ticket or tickets accordingly and give it or them to the subscriber.
(1B) Where a subscriber makes a ticket repeat request, or an oral request for a super 66 entry, without a request for entry into a lotto or pools draw, and pays the relevant subscription, the agent must generate a receipted ticket or tickets accordingly and give it or them to the subscriber.
(2) Each super 66 receipted ticket is to have printed on it a random selection of 6 digits, generated by computer, for each super 66 game entered.
(1) Subject to subrule (1B), a subscriber may surrender a receipted ticket for any reason —
(a) to the selling point at which it was purchased;
(b) on the day on which it was purchased;
(c) prior to the close of the day’s super 66 business for that selling point; and
(d) within the selling period for that ticket.
(1a) When surrendering a receipted ticket, the subscriber may specify that —
(a) any super 66 game and any lotto/pools games entered in conjunction with the receipted ticket are being surrendered;
(b) only the super 66 game (or games) on the receipted ticket is being surrendered, and that any lotto/pools games entered in conjunction are to continue to be valid; or
(c) only the lotto/pools games on the receipted ticket are being surrendered, and that any super 66 game entered in conjunction is to continue to be valid.
(1B) The Commission may allow a subscriber to surrender a super 66 receipted ticket in circumstances outside those set out in subrule (1), but is under no obligation to do so.
(2) If a subscriber surrenders a receipted ticket, the subscriber is entitled to a full refund from the agent or a further receipted ticket in exchange for the surrendered ticket.
An agent who generates a receipted ticket by processing a playslip, a promotional coupon or as a result of an oral request for entry is under no duty to ensure that receipted ticket accurately reflects the playslip, coupon or request.
(1) Subject to subrules (2) and (3), a receipted ticket is generated by the Commission to indicate that the details of a valid entry, or of a number of entries, as appearing on the ticket, have been recorded in the central gaming system records in relation to the numbered super 66 draw or draws shown on the ticket.
(2) Subrule (1) does not apply to a receipted ticket that —
(a) has had the super 66 draw or draws on the ticket surrendered in accordance with rule 7; or
(ab) is partially invalid because a “consecutive weeks” option is not allowed for some of the draws on the receipted ticket; or
(b) is forged or altered, or obtained as a direct result of fraud, by the subscriber or person claiming a prize; or
(c) is generated from a playslip for, or an oral request for entry in, Saturday lotto, Monday lotto, Wednesday lotto, Oz lotto, powerball or Soccer Pools which does not comply with the Saturday Lotto Rules, the Monday and Wednesday Lotto Rules, Oz Lotto Rules, the Powerball Rules or the Soccer Pools Rules (as is appropriate to the case).
(3) If the details appearing on the receipted ticket are ambiguous, illegible or appear to be at odds with the information in the central gaming system records, the central gaming system records are taken to be the correct details in relation to that receipted ticket.
Each super 66 draw conducted by the Commission is to be identified with a “draw number” which is the same as the draw number for the Saturday lotto draw conducted on the same day.
A super 66 draw is to be supervised in accordance with the relevant regulations of the State or Territory in which the draw takes place.
After each super 66 draw the Commission must publish, in a daily newspaper in this State —
(a) the “draw number” for that draw;
(b) the winning numbers;
(c) the amount allocated to a winning game in each division;
(d) the validation period and the date after which division 1 prizes will be paid;
(e) the total prize pool for that super 66 draw; and
(f) the amount, if any, to carry over as a jackpot to the division 1 prize pool for the next super 66 draw.
(1) The Commission must contribute 60% of all subscriptions received for each super 66 draw to a combined Australian Lotto Bloc super 66 prize fund in accordance with the appropriate agreement.
(2) The total contribution under subrule (1) is to be divided so that —
(a) not less than 55% of the Commission’s subscriptions go to the Australian Lotto Bloc super 66 prize pool; and
(b) the balance of the contribution goes to the Australian Lotto Bloc super 66 prize reserve fund.
(3) The prize reserve fund may only be distributed as additional prize money, in such amounts and in such super 66 draws, as are agreed by the members of the Australian Lotto Bloc.
A super 66 draw consists of the mechanical, equally random selection of 6 digits, each selected from the digits 0 to 9 inclusive, in a manner and using such equipment as the Commission, or designated authority supervising the super 66 draw, determines.
(1) Subject to subrule (2), in a super 66 draw the holder of a receipted ticket or the purchaser of an entry under the
Lotteries Commission (Internet Entries) Rules 2010 wins —(a) division 1, if the 6 selected digits in a game match the value, position and order of the 6 winning digits;
(b) division 2, if 5 of the selected digits in a game match the value, position and order of —
(i) the first, second, third, fourth and fifth winning digits; or
(ii) the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth winning digits;
(c) division 3, if 4 of the selected digits in a game match the value, position and order of —
(i) the first, second, third and fourth winning digits; or
(ii) the third, fourth, fifth and sixth winning digits;
(d) division 4, if 3 of the selected digits in a game match the value, position and order of —
(i) the first, second and third winning digits; or
(ii) the fourth, fifth and sixth winning digits;
(e) division 5, if 2 of the selected digits in a game match the value, position and order of —
(i) the first and second winning digits; or
(ii) the fifth and sixth winning digits.
(2) If a game satisfies the winning criteria for more than one division, that game is a winning game only in the highest of those divisions.
(1) Subject to rule 17, the Commission must distribute the total prize pool for a super 66 draw as follows —
(a) division 1 —
(i) the balance of the total prize pool after payment of prizes referred to in paragraphs (b), (c), (d) and (e);
(ii) $16 666; or
(iii) in a bonus draw, the minimum guaranteed amount,
whichever is the higher amount;
(b) division 2 — $6 666.00 for each winning game in that division;
(c) division 3 — $666.00 for each winning game in that division;
(d) division 4 — $66.00 for each winning game in that division; and
(e) division 5 — $6.60 for each winning game in that division.
(2) The division 1 prize pool is to be divided equally between the winning games in that division.
(1) If no one wins a division 1 prize in a particular super 66 draw, then the balance of the total prize pool for that draw, including any prize reserve fund augmentation, is to be added to, and then forms part of, the division 1 prize pool for the next super 66 draw.
(2) Where there is no super 66 division 1 prize winner for 26 consecutive super 66 draws, the Commission must allocate the accumulated division 1 prize pool in the 26
th super 66 draw the next lowest division in which there is a winner in that draw.(3) If the balance of the total prize pool is to be distributed to winners in a division other than division 1, the prize money is to be treated as a division 1 prize for the purposes of claiming and payment of prizes.
(1) The Commission may from time to time declare a super 66 draw to be a bonus draw and fix a minimum guaranteed prize pool for division 1 in that draw.
(2) The Commission may add all or part of the prize reserve fund to the total prize pool in a bonus draw to increase the division 1 prize pool to the guaranteed amount and any amount so added forms part of that prize pool.
(3) Where a bonus draw is declared under this rule, and a jackpot division 1 prize coincides with that draw, the Commission may elect to reduce the augmentation under subrule (2) by the amount of the jackpot.
(4) If —
(a) no one wins a division 1 prize in a bonus draw; and
(b) all or part of the prize reserve fund would have to have been used to increase the division 1 prize pool to a guaranteed amount had there been a division 1 winner,
the amount of the reserve that would have been so used is to be included as part of the division 1 prize pool for that draw when calculating the jackpot division 1 prize pool for the next super 66 lotto draw.
(1A) A division 1 prize in a super 66 draw is to be paid in accordance with these rules and the
Lotteries Commission (Internet Entries) Rules 2010 .(1) To claim a division 1 prize in a super 66 draw the holder of a winning receipted ticket must present it at the Commission’s head office within the payout period for that draw.

(b) subject to rule 24A, by cheque or in any other manner determined by the Commission; and
(c) after the validation period for that draw.
(3) Where a division 1 winning receipted ticket is presented to the Commission and details set out in the space provided on the receipted ticket for the prize winners details are not sufficient to establish —

(b) the name and address of the person to be paid; and
(c) if multiple names and addresses appear on the ticket, which of the named people is to be paid,
the Commission may —
(d) accept the claim but refuse to pay the prize until it is satisfied of the details referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c);
(e) where multiple names and addresses appear on the ticket, accept the claim and pay the prize to the person whose name appears first; or
(f) reject the claim.
(4) In order to satisfy itself of the details referred to in subrule (3)(a), (b) and (c), the Commission may request a statutory declaration containing such information as it may require as to the identity of the prize winner and person to be paid.
(5) Where the holder of a receipted ticket wins a division 1 prize in a super 66 draw and one or more other prizes on the same ticket, none of those prizes are to be paid until after the validation period for that draw.
(1A) A division 2 prize in a super 66 draw is to be paid in accordance with these rules and the
Lotteries Commission (Internet Entries) Rules 2010 .(1) To claim a division 2 prize in a super 66 draw the holder of a winning receipted ticket must present it to the Commission or an authorised payout centre within the payout period for that draw.
(2) A division 2 prize is to be paid to the holder of a winning receipted ticket —

(a) if it is $500 or less —
(i) by the Commission, an authorised payout centre or any other agent;

(iii) after the receipted ticket is presented to the Commission, authorised payout centre or agent;
