Do You Prefer the Spanish Lottery or the Euromillions
In Dec 2008 eLottery brought the Spanish National lotto to its product range, granting participants globally a immensely improved opportunity of partaking in this whopping Spanish lottery prize fund.
If it’s the first time you have come across the Spanish Lotto, let me highlight just how measurable this lotto is to the big majority of the Spanish population. The Spanish lotto has been a national obsession in Spain for a long time with immense involvement generated by the Christmas lottery draw each year. Believe it or not 98% of the population play this Spanish National lottery every Christmas.
There are a couple of central reasons why so many Spanish subjects join in the Christmas El Gordo lottery draw.
First Of All, there is the incentive of the largest lottery prize fund of any worldwide lottery game - 2.20 Billion Euros! Second, there are in excess of 13,000 money prizes to be won. Last, the probability of accumulating a money prize in the Christmas lottery draw are a highly attainable - one in six.
With the quantity of interest thats afforded to the Christmas Elgordo lottery draw, a lot of individuals are unaware that there are 5 extra Spanish Lottery draws annually also. These lottery games happen on July, January and November, March and May. While these five games don’t boast the gigantic prize fund of the Christmas lottery draw, they are large all the same, ranging from 78 million Euros to 655 million Euros. Also, these lottery games provide almost 3 times as many prizes as the Christmas lotto draw plus betting odds of collecting a money prize of an splendid 1 : 3.
The Christmas Spanish lottery functions in a different way to nearly all other world lotteries. A whole lotto ticket ‘billete’ is very dear, costing two hundred Euros. However, these tickets are broken up into ten ‘decimos’ (tenths) costing 20 Euros each.
When buying your lottery tickets you have the option of purchasing one decimo, a complete lottery ticket, or a portion of a lottery ticket. If you do not purchase the whole lotto ticket, someone else will buy the remainder of your ticket. E.g., when you purchase 2 decimos, somebody else purchases three decimos and someone else purchases 5 and your lottery ticket wins 1000 Euros, and then you will collect 200 Euros, 300 Euros and 500 Euros respectively. Owing to the expense of buying an entire ticket, it is not uncommon for households and friends to incorporate their lotto money and all buy a separate ‘decimo’ (tenth).
