Hoosier Lotto was founded in 1994 to raise finances for the numerous charity foundations in Indiana (USA). Holding only 2 draws a week, the lotto became highly popular due to the jackpot rolling over every time there was no lucky one to match Hoosier Lottery winning numbers. The winning odds are fairly high as you have to choose only 6 numbers from 1 to 48 in contrast to the more widespread 6/49 matrix. In other words, winning this lottery is much easier.
