The El Gordo Loteria is part of the Euromillions Euro lotto, but if that’s all you know you should really get to learn more. The lottery is rightly famous for payouts that number amongst the world’s richest - payouts from eighty-four million to 2.6 billion Euros. And yet there’s more. This lottery offers up more than thirteen thousand prizes, which works out to a one in six chance to win a prize. When compared with the prizes being pitched by other lotteries, it has to be said that El Gordo’s offerings certainly aren’t bad. With the Euromillions euro lottery draw, that’s made every month. Three months each play host to special drawings promising significantly more substantive prizes. Specifically, these are the January “El Nio”, the summer “San Ildefonso”, and held around Christmas, “El Gordo”, with Christmas’s El Gordo draw being the richest of the lot. In an atypical approach to draws, the balls used by the El Gordo lottery draw have five digits on each, these numbers ranging from 00,000 to 84,999. Under this system, a ball is drawn from a bowl to determine the winning ticket while a second is drawn from a second bowl to decide the prize value. Thinking of entering this lottery draw? You have two choices; first, you can purchase an entire ticket, called a “serie”. Also available for purchase is a “décimo”, worth one tenth of a full ticket. This is the cheaper option. Sadly, both these choices are comparatively pricy ways to play nor will either increase your prospects of a payout. As a result many people playing the Euromillions Euro lotto use the e-lottery scheme.
This system guarantees a prize for everyone who takes part. Just buy into the Euromillions Euro Lotto syndicate and you’ll be pooled into teams. With each team having a number between 0 and 9, the last digit on the winning number determines the winning team and they take the money. All members receive an even share. Afterward, subscriptions are offered for the syndicate ready for the next drawing.
It’s typical to wonder whether it would be worth sharing these prizes. The thing is, there’s still plenty to share out when the original prize was 2.6 billion Euros. You’ll find the syndicate system is far more affordable, and with the knowledge that you’ll win something in each draw, there are no worries about constantly losing. The e-lottery promises the best payout…
