TASMANIAN punters can vie for two jackpots next week, when Oz Lotto will offer a record $100 million prize pool on Melbourne Cup Day.
That means long queues can be expected on Tuesday -- not just at betting agencies but also at newsagencies.
The previous highest guaranteed division-one pool offered in Australia was $90 million in June 2009, which grew to $106.5 million because of "heightened player interest".
The booty was shared between an Adelaide man and a Queensland couple.
But Tuesday's jackpot presents the opportunity for a single player to become the biggest lottery prize winner in Australian history.
The nation's record to date is the $58.7 million won by a Victorian syndicate in 2008, Oz Lotto customers relations manager Lauren Halliday said today.
While the 2012 Melbourne Cup race will finish just after 3pm, gamblers can buy their Oz Lotto tickets up until 7.30pm.
But don't break out the champagne yet -- the chance of winning a division one prize is one in 45,379,620.
