Powerball reigns supreme for players after record-breaking jackpots. With seven main numbers drawn from 1–35 plus a separate Powerball (1–20), it combines the allure of huge prizes with the excitement of a two-tier draw. Despite its lower odds for Division 1 (1 in 134 490 400), even matching just the Powerball alone lands you in a secondary prize division, making every ticket a chance to win.

Oz Lotto's Tuesday night draw pools tickets nationwide, creating consistent multi-million-dollar jackpots. Players pick seven numbers from 1–45; with odds of 1 in 45 379 620 for the top prize and multiple lower divisions, it strikes a balance between playability and big-prize potential. Its broad prize pool allocation means mid-level wins occur regularly, keeping interest high even when the main jackpot rolls over.

Saturday Lotto—also called Gold Lotto in some states—is the nation's most popular weekend draw. Matching six numbers from 1–45, it offers more frequent prize events (often with guaranteed minimums) and a top prize that, while smaller than Powerball's, is more accessible (odds of 1 in 8 145 060). Its reliability and midday lottery culture make it a staple for casual and regular players alike.

Set for Life flips the traditional lump-sum model on its head by offering winners 20 000 a month for 20 years (Division 1) instead of a one-off jackpot. With five main numbers plus two "life" numbers drawn from a pool of 1–20, the 1-in-38 608 020 odds for the top tier are competitive—especially given the guaranteed steady income stream. Secondary prizes reward matching fewer numbers, giving players multiple ways to secure long-term payouts.

Keno delivers fast-paced action with draws every four minutes at licensed venues and online. Choose up to 10 numbers from 1–80; the more you play, the higher your potential return, though odds vary by selections (for example, 1 in 7.78 to match one number up to 1 in 8 911 712 to match ten). Its flexible betting structure—from "One Spot" to "Ten Spot" games—caters to both budget-conscious players and high rollers seeking big hits.
