Where to Find the Winning Numbers
Drawings are held Wednesday and Saturday evenings at approximately
8:40 pm Mountain Time.
You can buy tickets for Wednesday and Saturday drawings until
8:00 pm for that night's drawing. After the drawing, winning numbers
are available here at nmlottery.com, at all Lottery retailers and on our
player hotline at (505) 342‑PLAY (7529).
Play Up To 10 Drawings with Multi-Draw
Whether you play your favorite numbers or choose Quick
Picks, you can play up to ten drawings in a row. Simply
mark the appropriate box next to MULTI DRAW on your play
slip or ask the clerk for a Multi-Draw ticket ($1 per play per drawing).
Cash vs. Annuity
The advertised jackpot is an estimated amount which is
paid as an annuity of 25 payments over 24 years or, at the
election of the winner, in a single lump sum payment of the
cash value of the annuity prize (subject to State and
Federal taxes).
Annuity payments are guaranteed upon
death to a designated beneficiary or trust.
