E-Lottery & the El Gordo Lotto — a Primer
A key part of the Euromillions Euro lottery is the Loteria de Elgordo – and you would do well to learn about this part. The lottery is renowned for jackpots that can match the world’s richest – payouts ranging from 84 million to more than two and a half billion Euros. Nor is this the lottery’s only claim to fame. With over 13,000 prizes being offered the odds of winning something work out to around one per every six. When compared with the prizes being offered by other lottos, you’ve got to admit that Elgordo’s offerings certainly aren’t bad. Once per month the Euromillions Euro lottery holds a draw. Even bigger prizes can be expected from bigger drawings held three months a year. These special draws take place in January, summer, and around Christmas: they are, respectively, El Nio, San Ildefonso and Elgordo. Balls with numbers in a range between 00,000 and 84,999 are not typical in lottery systems, but the Elgordo lottery employs an unusual approach taking full advantage of them. The system employs two bowls, one being used in deciding the winning ticket, while the second decides the amount. Wondering how to enter this drawing? You have two choices; first, you can purchase a “serie” or a full ticket. Also available is a “décimo”, worth one-tenth of a full ticket. This is the cheaper option. Unfortunately, both both of these choices are pricey ways to play and neither improves your odds of winning in any case. That is why many people playing the Elgordo lottery take advantage of the e-lottery system. When you buy into this system, you can be sure that you will win a prize. You just buy into the Euromillions Euro Lottery syndicate where you’re sorted into teams. With each team assigned a number from zero to nine when the draw is made, the final digit of the winning number determines which team receives the money. All members receive an even share of the money. Everyone renews their subscription for the draw the following month and the cycle begins again.
It is natural to worry about whether it’s worth sharing these payoffs. The thing is, there’s still plenty to share out when the original prize was 2.6 billion Euros. With a guaranteed win at every draw, the e-lottery is both more cost effective and less of a worry as you can be certain of a return. The syndicate promises the best return of them all.
