Saturday Lotto is changing as of tomorrow with a larger Division One prize and the chances of winning any prize improving from 1-in-86 to 1-in-42, based on one game.

Players will only need three winning numbers to win Division Six.  Players previously needed 1 or 2 winning numbers plus 2 supplementary numbers.

Lotterywest say that the changes were in response to national research conducted by the Australian Lotto Bloc.

To support the changes there will be a price increase of 10 cents, plus retailer commission, per game.

Lotterywest spokesperson Pina Compagnone says we will be seeing thousands more WA winners after every draw.
