Appropriately named the “Kentucky Lottery 50/50 Split the Pot Raffle”, the game went on sale May 13. “It plays just like the split the pot raffles that have been around forever,” said the Kentucky Lottery’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing Steve Casebeer. “It’s a simple game – one winner takes half the pot, and it’s unlike anything we’ve ever offered.”

Sales of the $10 game will end at noon Friday (June 10), and a winning six digit number will be drawn in the afternoon.

Players can check the current pot amount at the lottery’s website (kylottery.com), as well as at retail locations.
