Superzahl Glitch Prompts Backup Draw in Lotto 6aus49 as Jackpot Is Split Three Ways

Organisers described the backup procedure as pretested, declaring the outcome valid under draw protocols.

Overview

  • After the six main numbers were drawn, the first Superzahl attempt produced an empty catch and a second try jammed two balls, triggering on-air intervention by draw supervisors.
  • The Superzahl was then drawn on a replacement machine, which organisers called successful and orderly, so a full redraw was not required.
  • Official results for 23 August: 3, 9, 13, 21, 23, 27 with Superzahl 9; Spiel 77: 4 8 4 3 5 1 0; Super 6: 4 3 0 6 9 9.
  • Monday’s published quotas show three tickets matched six numbers plus the Superzahl, each winning approximately €4.07 million from the €12 million jackpot.
  • Officials noted that spare devices are standard, regularly tested, and kept on hand to ensure continuity during technical faults.
