Lottery
Australia has several lottery games most of which are run by state government owned corporations. Although the state government run lotteries makes up of the lions share of the total online lotteries there are also a few number of national lotteries also . These games are typically administered by one of several government owned corporations, and syndicated through the Australian Lotto Bloc - an umbrella
organisation consisting of the several lottery operators - with prize pools combined between states. For example, Tattersalls administrates the Saturday Lotto Oz Lotto and Powerball games on behalf of the bloc. Similarly, South Australian Lotteries operate the Australian Soccer Pools,
although lotteries are legal they are very strictly regulated by the government and each and every lottery strictly adhere to all government
laws. These laws normally very from state to state for instance In most states, lotteries products can only be bought by persons over the age of 18 years. But in some states (for example, Western Australia and South Australia), the minimum age is decreased to 16 years only. Another special
characteristics of Australian lottery is that unlike most lottery competitions around the world the Australian lottery game(s) prizes are tax paid values. So if a player wins a million dollar prize, he gets paid a million dollars and the money is given as a
lump sum no matter how large the amount is.Some of the famous lotteries of Australia include
Tattslotto The game is marketed as "Tattersalls" in Victoria, Tasmania, Australian Capital Territory, and the Northern Territory; as "Gold Lotto" in Queensland; and as "Lotto" or "Saturday Lotto" in New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia.

states. The company also owns several poker machines and the rights to betting in the Australian Football League matches 'Tipstar'
A player purchases a number of "games" by either marking numbers on a computer-scannable ticket or by requesting a random selection normally called the quick pick or autopick option. Games where a player selects six numbers only is known as a Standard game, and these are often played in multiples of two. More than six numbers can be selected per game - known as a Systems entry (eg. 'System 7' is where seven numbers are selected) - but the cost of that game rises as the odds of winning increase. Some states also allow you to select only 5 or 4 numbers, with those numbers being combined with every combination of the remaining numbers (giving the equivalent of 40 and 780 standard games respectively). This is sometimes also referred to as a Systems entry - eg. 'System 5' - or as a 'With The Field'
entry. The prize structure of tattslotto is
1. First Division ( $700,000) - All six winning numbers in a game.
