A winning selection is determined by having, based on the official results issued by Loto-Québec, the greatest number of exact predictions or the second greatest number of exact predictions among all valid selections registered for a given List.
Loto-Québec allocates 60% of the amounts wagered for a given List for the payment of prizes and establishes a "POOL FUND" by deducting from this sum the total amount of prizes payable to bearers of a ticket with the second largest number of accurate predictions. The prizes are determined as follows:
* Loto-Québec guarantees that the Pool Fund will never be less than 40% of the total amount wagered for a given List and that the prize paid to the holder of a ticket bearing a winning selection will never be less than $10.
** For this category of winning selections, “share of the pool” signifies an amount calculated by dividing the Prize Pool of this category by the number of winning selections in the category.
