В офисе компании женщина в сопровождении двух юристов и своего сына заявила о намерении взять сумму целиком и согласилась на соответствующее занижение выигрыша до $370,8 million. Для получения полной суммы в 590,5 миллионов долларов США их бы пришлось получать в течение многих лет ежегодными платежами.

Prizes
Players, matching four numbers in each corner of the table from the first 33 numbers, win the smallest prize. Then five more balls are drawn, and the players win a prize, if they match all nine numbers, which will create a diagonal cross in the table. At the final stage, the balls fall out until then, until at least one of the players guesses all the numbers.
Jackpot is won, when one of the players guesses everything 25 numbers from the first 41. If nobody wins the jackpot during the week, next week's goal will be to match all the numbers from the first 42. The numbers played increase by 1 every week, until the jackpot is won.
Prizes are awarded on a sweepstakes basis, so they will be calculated based on the number of tickets sold and the number of players at each stage. The table below provides information on how to, what do you need to do, to win a prize at every stage, and the probability of winning.
| Game stage | Guess numbers | Number of drawn balls | Prize fund percentage |
|---|---|---|---|
| First | 4 (each angular number) | 33 | 35% |
| Second | 9 (forming a diagonal cross or X) | 38 | 15% |
| Third | 25 (every square) | Drawing, beginning with 41 incrementally, until the jackpot is won | 50% |
50% goes to the prize pool for matching all numbers, 30% - separately for all, who will win the jackpot, by guessing all the numbers from the required number of balls. If the jackpot is not won, he goes to the next draw. Rest 20% used for payments to players, who will guess all numbers not from the specified number of balls to win the jackpot.
for example, if you guessed all numbers from 41 balls or less, you win everything 50% prize fund, allocated for this level. If you can guess all the numbers from 42 balls or more, you will only win 20% prize fund. Rest 30% prize money of this level will be transferred to the next drawing.
Interesting fact
The minimum jackpot is 100 000 €. If there is less money in the prize pool, the Estonian national lottery reserve fund is used to pay out winnings. The reserve fund is also used to pay the minimum prize in 2 € to players from the lowest winning group.
Available bookmakers in Estonia
Estonian users are free to use the services as national, and foreign online betting operators, and also freely visit land-based bookmakers and sweepstakes. When online bookmakers first started to appear on the Estonian market, the government banned visits to foreign sites and tried to block the possibility of any transactions with foreign online sweepstakes. However, such efforts have proven ineffective..
Moreover, low tax turned out to be quite attractive for European companies, and they acquired an Estonian license as soon as possible. The same companies, who did not become players in the national market of the country, managed to get around the ban, using the legislation of the European Union, uniting some economic spaces of the member states.
Now Estonian residents legally place bets in the bookmaker's office:
- Sports betting;
- Bet365;
- Winner;
- BetVictor;
- Optibet;
- Olympic.
What American lotteries to play?
Despite, that a lot of people live in the USA, who dream of Jackpot, and foreign players also join them, There are not many lotteries in America.
The most famous and attractive are PowerBall and Mega Millions, plus even mini-lotteries and instant ones with more modest prize pools.
PowerBall
Powerball's main prize in the entire history of the lottery was not less than 40 million dollars, and the maximum was 1,6 billion, it was ripped off in 2016 year.
Which rules?
In this lottery, you need to choose 5 numbers from 69 mostly field and 1 number from 29 in additional:
By choosing more 5 rooms, namely the function: "With a multiplier" in the first part, you can double your chances of winning, however, the ticket price will also increase.
How much can you win?
| Guessed balls (regular field and additional) | Winnings |
|---|---|
| 1PB | 4$ |
| 1 + 1PB | 4$ |
| 2 + 1PB | 7$ |
| 3 | 7$ |
| 3 + 1PB | 100$ |
| 3 | 100$ |
| 4 + 1PB | 1000$ |
| 5 | 10000$ |
| 5 + 1PB | Jackpot |
What are the chances?
The odds of winning the main cash prize are negligible - 1:292 201 338. Nonetheless, Powerball players prove, what is impossible is possible. The phenomenal luck of the lottery participants helped to win huge jackpots and 2016, and c 2017 years.
Winnings over 600$ can only be picked up at the office of the organizing company, and it's quite problematic to do it yourself, if you played American lotteries in Russia. Concierge collects winnings on behalf of foreign winners, which the, if the intermediary is honest, transfers funds to you to electronic payment systems.
Mega Millions
The minimum jackpot of the Mega Millions lottery is 15 million dollars, increase - every print run, until someone hits the jackpot. It doesn't happen that often, and the main prize can "grow" up to several hundred million dollars.
As in PowerBall, within the framework of one draw, two drawings are held - the main one (5/75, lottery drum with white balls) and additional (1/15 , balls of red). It is the additional numbers that can bring the participant a resounding victory and winning the main prize.
If desired, the broadcast of the drawing can be watched live, but due to the time difference, not every Russian player finds it convenient. In general, reviews of American lotteries in Russia are positive, true, there are not many of them, since only a small percentage of our compatriots decide to play the overseas lottery.
Mini lotteries
Mini-format games offer players more modest prizes, but also runs much more often, rather than big lotteries.
The rules of the game are almost the same, as usual. The difference is only the number of balls matched. for example, in Florida LuckyMoney to receive the main cash reward, you must guess 4 numbers from 7 and 1 of 17.
But here, where to buy a ticket for the American mini-lottery, I can’t say for sure - I haven’t seen any offers for sale on any of the intermediary sites.
American Instant Lottery
You are unlikely to find this type of lotteries in online sales - they do not involve guessing numbers, the player only needs, what to erase the protective field and see the result of your luck. Usually, he is never big.
Scratches for instant play attract with a bright design and the ability to win a few dollars in a matter of seconds. They are not available for players via the Internet, but I am talking about them for informational purposes only: can, you are interested, what do people in other countries play, can, you yourself will have to visit the USA and buy Texas Hold'em or Monopoly tickets.

There were booths with winning numbers at the entrance (they were printed in newspapers) and there was a trash can for throwing away tickets that did not win. As the boys, we collected these tickets in an urn to use them as money in our children's games. Because they looked so much like them. And most importantly, the smell of these tickets was one to one, like real money.

Lottery history
Published by: Leo 31|03|2018 || Views: 1897
The history of the origin of the lottery leads to the ancient origins of human civilization. According to scientists, one of the first mentions of the manifestation of a peculiar form of the lottery are ancient Greek myths, which says, that the warriors took turns pulling stones from the golden helmet, one of which gave the right to a duel with Zeus, what it meant to be able to live or die with honor.
The birth of the first forms of lottery in ancient Rome and China takes place almost simultaneously.. IN 100 a lottery was organized during the reign of the Han dynasty in China, reminiscent of the Keno game. Facilities, proceeds from its holding, were used to defend the country, and primarily to finance the construction of the Great Wall of China.
