The Smart Elgordo Lottery Primer
September 30th, 2009
A key part of the Euromillions Euro lottery is the Loteria de El Gordo which you may well wish to learn about. Boasting payouts between eighty four million and two point six billion Euros, the el gordo de la primitiva offers one of the world’s richest jackpots. Even that isn’t the only thing that is special here. With over 13,000 prizes available, the odds of winning something work out to around one per every six. Pretty good, actually, by the standards of the prizes offered by competing lotteries. In the Euromillions Euro lotto there is one draw per month. Three months each year play host to special drawings featuring still grander prizes. These three bigger lotteries occur in January, summer, and at Christmas; they are, in order, El Nio, San Ildefonso & El Gordo, literally: “the fat cat”. Balls each numbered between 00,000 and 84,999 are not what you expect to see from lottery systems, but this draw employs a unique system using them. One ball apiece is drawn from two bowls; the first draw determines the winner, the second what the ticket is worth. Wondering how to enter this drawing? There are two basic choices; first, you can buy a full ticket, called a “serie”. The other option is cheaper; called a “décimo” valued at one tenth of a full ticket. Neither choice is especially cheap, however, and equally neither has better odds of being a winner. This is the reason that the e-lottery scheme is used by many Euromillions Euro lotto players. This system can guarantee a prize to everyone who takes part. You’re automatically assigned a team following your buy into the El Gordo Lottery syndicate. With each team assigned a number ranging from zero to nine when the draw is made, the last number on the winning ball identifies which team will receive the money. Each member will receive their share of the prize. In anticipation of next month’s draw, the syndicate takes subscriptions once again to continue the e-lottery.
It is natural to worry about whether it would be worth sharing these payoffs. But when you take into account how much 2.6 billion Euros is actually worth, there’s still lots of money to go around. As you’re guaranteed to win at every draw, the e-lottery is both more cost effective and less stress as you can be certain of a return. The e-lottery syndicate offers the best payout…
