New Zealand lotto does not have a 3 number prize either. The closest is 3 + B for $10. But then the odds are good.6+2B/40 (1:3838380

Some of the games are a really good deal like that 6/38 game and two bonus balls are a help, but no 3# prize is a bummer if you're good at winning them and not so good at 4# prizes. Either...

SUCKERS!You got it half right, our tickets are tax free, only the winner pays taxes rather than every player as they do in Australia. Rather pay a $1.00 then a $1.10. per ticket.BobP

Sounds great, but i would rather know someone over there who could play it for me and we split the jackpot. I just don't like using the internet companies to play the lotto. I suppose if I won an overseas lotto, I would have to either move to that country or let the USA tax me.
