In the 1264th draw of Russian Lotto, several prizes will be awarded:

  • jackpot – 1 billion rubles
  • 100 prizes of 1 million rubles each
  • other cash prizes.

The presenter takes the kegs out of his bag one by one. There are 90 of them, they are numbered - from 1 to 90. If a ball is drawn, the number of which is on the participant’s ticket, then he crosses out this cell. How more numbers managed to cross out, the greater the winnings.

Participants who win in the 1st and 2nd rounds continue to participate in the draw until it is completed. The winners of the third and all other rounds finish participating as soon as they win a prize.

Where to buy tickets?

There are five ways to buy tickets:

  • website "Stoloto" (there is mobile version and smartphone application)

  • at points of sale of Stoloto partners (these are communication stores, Russian Post, BaltBet, BaltLoto, Rostelecom, Pyaterochka)
  • at lottery kiosks
  • in lottery machines or lottery center"Stoloto".

Ticket price – 100 rubles. It is the same in all places: partners do not charge commissions for distributing tickets.

Usually Stoloto allows you to buy online tickets only for the next lottery draw. But for the New Year's edition they made an exception: purchase a ticket on the website or in mobile application possible now. To do this, select circulation 1264 when you buy your ticket:


How to play?

If you buy a ticket at a kiosk or at a partner store, the numbers will already be entered. When purchasing a ticket online (on the website or in the mobile application), you can choose the numbers yourself.

What are the chances of winning?

Let's consider several options:

  • In 2018, one participant won the jackpot, and 42,500,003 tickets were purchased. This means that the chance of winning the main prize is 1:42,500,003, or 0.000002%.
  • Prizewinners who won 1 million rubles or Vacation home, there were 40 people. The chance of receiving such a prize was 0.00009%.
  • 55 people who took part in the 2018 Golden Billion received 181 thousand rubles each. The chance of being among these people in 2018 is 0.0001%.
  • Back in 2018, there were prizes of 161 thousand rubles - they were drawn in the first round. There were 62 winners. The chance of entering their group is 0.00012%.
  • The probability of winning other prizes is approximately 1:2.5 (or 40%). But the winnings will be from 101 to 131 rubles. If you subtract the cost of the ticket, it turns out that the winner received “net” from 1 to 31 rubles.

Please note that the odds of winning will be slightly different in 2019. Not 42.5 million people will buy tickets, but more or less. The prizes will also change: their number will increase.

But luck is a capricious thing, and not everyone has had the opportunity to win, and winning big prizes is the lot of only a few.

Lotteries are played all over the world. In Russia, only 1-2% of the population participates in lotteries, for comparison: the share of players in France is 70% of the total population of the country, in the USA - 63%. Such a small percentage of players in Russia is explained by Russians’ distrust of lotteries. But among these percentages there are also winners who hit large jackpots.

Money can not buy happiness

Large winnings in lotteries in Russia and abroad have not brought only happiness to everyone; there are those for whom the winnings turned out differently.

In 2001, unemployed spouses from Ufa became winners in the Bingo Show lottery and won 29 million rubles. However, winning did not bring happiness. The couple spent the entire prize within 5 years. But the main misfortune was the death of one of the winners due to alcohol abuse.

But the scammers did not stand aside either. One lady approached Shakespeare and promised to help him manage his money correctly. And she gave orders: she transferred all the money to her own account, and soon Shakespeare himself was found dead with two bullets in his chest.

Jack Whittaker was a successful businessman, family man, and philanthropist until he won a major jackpot in 2002. Whittaker became addicted to drinking alcohol gambling, abandoned his family. Within a few years, his entire fortune was spent and his business collapsed.

Jackpots in world lotteries

But even the largest lottery winnings in Russia cannot be compared with the main prizes in lotteries around the world. Residents of the United States are big fans of lotteries, because the largest jackpots are played on American lotteries such as Powerball and Mega Millions. So, the largest lottery winnings in the world belong to:

1. On August 24, 2017, an American won more than 758 million US dollars in the Powerball lottery. This is the most big win of this lottery and lotteries of the world, which fell on one ticket.

The question of how to win the lottery arises for all players. There is no set way to win. Every winner has his own secret of success, but not everyone is ready to share it. Most argue that it is just luck and luck, others follow certain rules:

  • They play with an expanded bet, i.e. choosing more numbers than possible in a regular bet. Of course, an expanded bet involves more investments, but the chance of winning increases.
  • They regularly participate in lotteries and constantly use the same combination. They are waiting for the chosen combination to bring the long-awaited prize.
  • Play with friends, so-called lottery syndicate. In this case, a group of people buys as many tickets as possible for one lottery, and if they win, they divide everything in half.
  • Various mathematical formulas are used.

There are also those who believe in happy Days, numbers, clothes, talismans. They buy tickets, choose the numbers on the ticket that are meaningful to them, and use various spells to win.

Statistics of large lottery winnings in Russia indicate that every year the number of participants is growing, and so are the winnings. The probability of hitting the jackpot is negligible and depends on the specific lottery. For example, the opportunity to win in the Gosloto 5 out of 36 lottery is approximately 1 in 367 thousand, in the Gosloto 6 out of 45 lottery - 1 in 8 million, in the Russian Lotto - 1 in 7 million.
