How many ‘MONOPOLY’ millionaires will be made Friday night?

Since MONOPOLY MILLIONAIRES’ CLUB™ started at the end of October, Friday nights are more fun than ever. For this week’s drawing, the Top Prize has climbed to its $25 million maximum – and that means more $1 million Club prizes: 16 to be exact.

If a lucky player beats the odds of 1 in 72.7 million to match all five numbers drawn and the Property Number to win the $25 million Top Prize, 16 more players who have tickets for the drawing will win $1 million! That’s what makes this game different from the other national games: Instead of playing for a giant jackpot that grows, MMC adds more club prizes of $1 million anytime the Top Prize isn’t hit.

To kick off the game, a special one-time drawing made William McCrea the first MMC player in North Carolina to win $1 million.

Speaking of $1 million, a dozen North Carolina players will be heading to Las Vegas next month for the chance to play for up to $1 million on the MONOPOLY MILLIONAIRES’ CLUB television game show. The drawing was held on Tuesday, and the winners have been notified. As the prizes are officially claimed, we will announce the winners’ names here in the Lucke-Zone.

We’ll be watching with all of you across the state at 11:15 p.m. to see what happens in the drawing. Good luck!

When you complete a set in monopoly does it automatically enter you in the drawing for vegas??? NC Lottery
That's correct! Best of luck!

The NO MO POLY GAME is rigged, that random generator pics another loser 12/5/14 only 2 players in NC won $250 for the big winners of the night. Just like the random generator in the AON game. 5 straight drawings with no NC players hitting anything but pennys. N C players deserve better than this. everybody knows that the random generators are rigged. NCEL just keep cheating the players and they will stop playing.

You paid out 1.12 billion but how much did you take in and how much of that 1.12billion was free tickets because I buy $20 tickets all the time and always hit $20 or $25 yes lottery is supposed to be fun and you greedy people take the fun out I'm not playing nc lottery anymore besides the tickets I have I'll play in other states where can can win more than just your money back

This game stinks just like the rest of nc lottery NC Lottery
Dustin. If you are playing that much and not having a winning experience, then there is not much we can say to change your mind. We say this a lot and we mean it. There are a lot more important things in life than playing the lottery. So we wish you well. We know people play the lottery to win prizes. In our last fiscal year, we paid out $1.12 billion in prizes, averaging about $3 million a day. Some folks say we pay out too much in prizes and that more should go to education. We try to find the balance between allowing people to have fun and win prizes and raising money for a good cause.

So as I read a reply from a player Lucke-Zone replied that it was not a registered ticket that was ramdomly drawn out but the player was hand picked by the N C LOTTERY NOT BY A RANDOM ACT. Your words not mine. I wondered why it would take a week after the close date to find the lucky players. Just where can I find these so called names that have collected their prize to go to Vegas. I had over 3000 entries and now I find out that they were not used to pick the winners. I will not be buying another mo NO poly ticket. NC Lottery
The winners were randomly drawn by the NCEL. The players' names can't be released until they come in to claim their prize and the winner info is posted here: https://rewards.lucke-zone.com/drawings/winners/view/521

Could you please make a prize chart for the new Monopoly and All or Nothing game and post it in the Lucke-Rewards website along with the other games?

12/04/2014 01:19 - jason r.

how come the winners from Tuesday drawing are all on there.where as it usually takes weeks to see some names all 5 was on here in less than 48 hours!!VERY FISHYNC Lottery
The timeframe for claiming the MONOPOLY trips to Vegas is shorter than for Lucke-Rewards prizes, so winners were encouraged to make arrangements to visit one of the lottery's claim centers as quickly as possible.

Best wishes for all players i this game of chance.The question is: Why don't nobody win from Raleigh?NC Lottery
We've had lots of winners from Raleigh and Wake County! You can click on this link to see about 28 pages of Google results, mostly about winners in your area: http://bit.ly/1zVgARF

How will i know if one of my tickets were selected for the millionaires tv show? If there specific numbers that are drawn why can't we see the results?NC Lottery
As you know from entering your MMC tickets here in the Lucke-Zone, you gain entries into the drawing by completing Property Sets. So its not actually one particular ticket or ticket number that is associated with the winners in the drawing, just your Lucke-Zone account information. So we notified the winners by e-mail (and, if necessary, we call or send certified mail).

Why are the names not listed here for the lucky players that where hand picked to be on the show not listed here today? This is the computer age and it only takes a minute to post their names here.NC Lottery
Indeed it is the computer age! Which is why we notified the winners by e-mail (if necessary, we still call or use snail mail). But we can't announce a winner's name until he or she claims the prize! As soon as we have a name to share, we'll post it! :) {P.S. the winners won the Vegas trips in a random drawing!}
