Multiple Winners
If there is more than one winner within each of Groups 1 to 4, prizes will be divided equally among all winners of the respective Group. Each winner of Groups 5 to 7 will receive the respective prize amount as indicated above and not have to share.
Snowball
Groups 1 prize will snowball for up to four consecutive draws that has no winner, with the fourth draw referred to as the Cascade draw. Group 2, 3 and 4 prizes will always snowball until they are won.
Cascade
If there is no Group 1 winner in three consecutive draws, a Cascade draw will be held subsequently instead of a normal draw. During the Cascade draw, the Group 1 prize, if again not won, will be shared among the next highest group with winners. Imagine this: it is therefore possible for Group 7 winners to share the Group 1 prize if there is no winner in Group 1 to 6 in the event of a Cascade draw.
