Comparing with others

Lotteries are held in almost all countries, there are also many examples of record winnings or holiday draws. But, there are nuances in comparison with our "draws":

When does the Christmas lottery start in Spain? (The Fat Christmas) all players know for sure, what are the winnings and how the prize fund is divided. That's why (and also thanks to the previous, almost flawless, draw history) so many people participate in it, and the general fees are amazing.

When the next lottery rush starts in the USA, it doesn't start because, that the organizer has appointed a record "guaranteed" jackpot. And therefore, that the super prize grows from the players' bets and the probability of winning it depends on the number of tickets purchased, and not from the principle of drawing, chosen at its discretion by the lottery operator.

UPD (2019)

As the events of the last year have shown, sometimes (eg, in the New Year's drawing) the operator plays the accumulated jackpot forcibly, in the second round. It turns out, that at first the super prize is being built up for a long time and purposefully (since according to the current rules it is unrealistic to win), and then they are guaranteed to play. Then, when it is convenient for the organizers.

Ticket purchased online or by SMS

The ticket distribution system is designed like this, to minimize the possibility of fake coupons on sale. An extensive network of stationary points and online sales allow organizers to fully control the process. One of the ways to get tickets is to buy them in the official app, on the company's website or via SMS code.

Prize to 100 thousand rubles

Principles of jackpot drawing

Throughout the history of the "Russian Lotto" jackpot was determined by two principles, which are quite similar, but the probability of success in them varies greatly. You will hardly find this information in the rules of the game on the Stoloto website, however, it is contained in the order of the Ministry of Sports of the Russian Federation from 19 August 2016 r. № 982 "On the approval of the conditions of the five drawing all-Russian state lotteries in support of the development of physical culture and sports". The document was signed by the former Minister of Sports Vitaly Mutko.

In particular, in the section "Conditions of the fourth drawing all-Russian state lottery in support of the development of physical culture and sports", two algorithms for drawing a jackpot are given. This is stated in paragraph 14.21 section.

Algorithm # 1

Jackpot get those tickets, in which 15 numbers from 30 in two playing fields coincide with all fifteen dropped kegs for the first 15 moves.

In this case, the probability of winning is 1 chance from almost 23 quadrillion, that is, insignificant 4,37-15%.

Algorithm # 2

Win tickets, in which, on the move determined by the operator, the numbers dropped out during the draw coincide 15 numbers from 30, located in the two playing fields of the ticket.

In this case, the probability can increase significantly, but for a single lottery participant it will still remain insignificant - 1 chance out 295 232 118, it is approximately 3,4-7%.

Lottery organizers change these two ways from draw to draw at their discretion. Since the first way to win the jackpot in the "Russian Lotto" is almost impossible, then this one is used rather to accumulate a large prize size. Then the second method comes into force - then the super prize can already find its owner.

Before, how in 2016 the second principle appeared, hitting the jackpot didn't work for several years, since the mathematics simply did not allow it. After the introduction of the second principle, they began to receive superprizes much more often.

The largest jackpots

The biggest jackpot in the world was drawn in the Powerball lottery (USA) in 2016 year. Its size was 1,586 billion dollars and was equally divided between the three participants, guessing the winning combination of numbers.

Each winner then received more than half a billion dollars..

In September 2018 of the year, the world community was again stunned by the stunning news of the jackpot drawing, not much inferior to the record, at the rate of 1,537 billion dollars (excluding taxes - as in the previous example).

The lucky winner was the owner of the MegaMillions lottery ticket, acquired in the US state of South Carolina. The winnings will be paid out in equal monthly installments during 29 years. The amount of one such payment will exceed 2,2 million dollars.

Billion-dollar Jackpot Wins Revealed Instantly Heats Interest in Lotteries, causing avalanche-like buying of tickets around the world. Thanks to this, lottery organizers have the opportunity to very quickly restore the winning lottery fund..

The number of participants in such lotteries during the surge can reach tens of millions, despite the fact that the probability of winning each individual participant is inversely proportional to their total number.

In the same MegaMillions lottery, the probability of getting the coveted jackpot is scanty 3 x 10-9. Only one of its more than three hundred million members can count on Fortune's favor.
