$32 million Gold Ball draws tonight at 1-in-19 odds

The Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball jackpot is $32 million for tonight’s draw (Saturday, October 31), with sales closing at 10:30 p.m. ET – and the odds of the gold ball appearing are now 1 in 19, the best they have been all run, per Loto-Québec.

Why the odds keep improving: the Gold Ball drum holds one gold ball – worth the entire growing jackpot – and one white ball per draw, each worth a guaranteed $1 million. Every time a white ball comes out, it is removed and $2 million is added to the jackpot. After nine straight white-ball draws, only 19 balls remain – and the draw also carries a Super Draw of 75 prizes of $10,000 tonight, per Loto-Québec.

If the gold ball comes up tonight, a single ticket wins the entire $32 million. If it’s white again, the jackpot climbs to $34 million for Wednesday’s draw with even better odds. Each $3 play also includes the Classic Draw: match six numbers from 1 to 49 for a fixed $5 million.
