LANSING, April 24, 2007 – Get on a Lucky Streak!

The Michigan Lottery’s newest Club Game, Lucky Streak, is currently being tested in approximately 300 western Michigan locations and a few select locations in the Lansing area.  In Lucky Streak, players select how many draws they wish to play, from 1 through 6.  They then select one number between zero and nine for each draw played.  One winning number will be drawn and displayed on the Club Keno monitor every 4 minutes just before the Kicker and Club Keno drawings.  On a $1 wager, players win up to $500,000 for matching their number on every draw played.  To increase odds of winning a cash prize, players can use the Lucky Streak Plus feature.  For an extra $1, players can “hedge their bets” and win by matching their numbers on fewer draws. 

“Our Club Games have been extremely successful and we expect Lucky Streak to be a huge success as well,” Lottery Commissioner Gary Peters said.  “This test market will provide us with the feedback we need to launch the game statewide.”

The Lucky Streak game will be available in Allegan, Barry, Ionia, Kent, Montcalm, Muskegon, Newaygo, and Ottawa Counties and a few select retailers in the Lansing area for a limited time. 

All proceeds from the Lottery are contributed to the state School Aid Fund which supports kindergarten through 12th grade public education in Michigan.  In fiscal year 2006, the contribution was $688 million.
