We win in "Sporloto 6 out of 49"

The legendary lottery, which came to us from Soviet times and is celebrating its 45th anniversary this year, still looks tempting. Not only because of the low cost of the minimum bet (only 20 rubles) and an impressive super prize, but also due to the introduction of a bonus ball into the game. This type of lotteries is popular abroad and, as we see, successfully lives in Russia. Guessing the number on the bonus ball is the desired goal of many, whose 5 numbers marked in the coupon have already matched the main combination. But the most persistent and lucky participants reach it. And the more interesting it is to live, play and win!

The principle of dropping numbers

A random number generator is used to determine winning combinations. This is the most modern technology that is responsible for the loss of numbers in the world's leading lotteries. In this case, the human factor is absolutely excluded, which means that the whole process of drawing can be unconditionally trusted.
How do you choose numbers when placing bets? Do you mark your favorite numbers that you consider lucky, or do you use the Auto Bet feature? Do you keep track of dropdown combinations? For those who keep strict strategic calculations or just want to know which numbers win more often and which ones less often, statistics for each lottery are regularly updated on the Stoloto website.

The most unusual combination of numbers

The imagination of experienced lottery strategists was amazed on April 5, 2015, when in the 17053rd edition of the fast game "Rapido" a super prize of 4,269,583 rubles was brought by a beautiful combination: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 - in the first part of the field, 4 - in the second part. Indicate the first eight numbers on the ticket, pay 30 rubles (that's how much the lucky bet cost) and thus become a millionaire - great luck! This victory has already entered the history of lotteries. And not only because of such a rare combination of numbers, but also because the win was a record for Rapido.

Winning the bingo lottery

The most popular state bingo lotteries in Russia are Russian Lotto and Housing Lottery. They raffle apartments, country houses, cars and large cash prizes.

The chances of winning the bingo lottery increase noticeably when the game is played up to the 87th move. This means that Mikhail Borisov, the host of the Russian Lotto, has three barrels in his bag (instead of the usual four), and three balls in the Housing Lottery machine. And if you don't find these numbers on your ticket, then you've won!
Winning in the Russian Lotto and the Housing Lottery depends entirely on your luck, because here you will not be able to make a detailed bet or use a multiplier. These are lotteries for those who prefer to surrender to the will of fate and give fortune the opportunity to choose a favorite on Sunday morning during the draw (broadcast is held on Sundays at 8:15, on the NTV channel, in the Russian Lotto Plus program). There are several ways to influence the balance of power. Choose a ticket with your favorite numbers printed in the playing field. Buy multiple tickets to increase your chances of winning. Or become the owner of block tickets, in which all 90 numbers are marked. Such tickets are issued for the main holidays of the country and other important dates.
If you are already impatient to test the theory of the probability of winning in practice, hurry up to purchase lottery tickets or place a bet at the lottery kiosk closest to you, the Euroset communication store, the Svyaznoy store, the Russian Post office or on the website of the Russian lottery Internet supermarket Stoloto. in the Stoloto mobile application or via SMS.
May fortune smile upon you!

For 2 months we have been keeping statistics of the game (honesty test!) in Russian lotteries on one popular resource

Do you seriously think that when playing lotteries with closed draws and with a withdrawal animated video broadcasts, really win the jackpot?

Then we go to you!

By experience, we will prove to you how players are deceived on this resource. Really serious prizes and jackpots (1st and 2nd categories - far from random people fall out!). Call it what you want, up to laundering the game money supply.

Statistics of rates of one of our players on the main lotteries (6 out of 45 & 5 out of 36):

For example, one of the bets on 140 combinations of numbers in the state lottery lottery is 6 out of 45 with a probability of winning the jackpot - 1 to 8,000,000, and, accordingly, the probability of winning secondary prizes is an order of magnitude higher.

A detailed bet was issued with 8 numbers on each of the 6 fields of the ticket:

as you can see, the cost of this bet was 14 000 R. - as a result, the gain was - 1500 R.

On the other hand, this may seem like an absolutely normal set of circumstances, but not when the comrades playing in parallel bet on amounts more than 30 000 rubles in each draw, covering the most popular combinations and numbers on 6 ticket fields - winning miserable 1500r.

Many of the combinations that drop out during consecutive draws really suggest the planned 20 minutes before the start of the draws and automatically generated combinations, because the numbers sometimes fall out far from random!

There have been cases of falling in two consecutive draws 3 and 4 repeated numbers in combination, which, in principle, according to the theory of probability, is practically impossible, the probability is 0.000001%

Those. support absolutely officially answers our question:

Player: What are the guarantees that the drop-down combinations (rapido, 6 out of 45, 5 out of 36) are not automatically selected in a non-random manner, based on already purchased tickets (bets) using some da Vinci code generator (just in these 20 minutes before the start of the draw, after the closing of bets) ?

Support response:There are no guarantees, by default you must trust us, since we have a draw commission and number generators patented by special structures.

So, it turns out that we are obliged to believe that money is not laundered in this way, but actually won by phantom players, which is also unrealistic to trace.

It would be good if there was also a live broadcast of draws with real people in the draw commission, which we could see, and, accordingly, the process of choosing numbers by lottery specials. device.

Perhaps the number of winning people in each draw is a fiction that is presented to us as a distraction, which supposedly we really win, but it is not possible to trace it.

The next important point:

Why is the distribution of prizes of the 2nd category and other minor prizes often between a clearly defined number of participants?

How, in principle, this can be possible according to the theory of probability, if the number of players is more than 100,000 people, and the number of bets sometimes exceeds 300,000.

ON A NOTE: In the lottery gosloto 6 out of 45- the probability of guessing 5 numbers out of 6 (to win a prize of the 2nd category) is an order of magnitude less than guessing 5 numbers out of 5 in lottery 5 out of 35(prize of the 1st category), but for some reason the number of guessing 5 numbers in the lottery is 6 out of 45 - always more than 1 (from 1 to 10).

In the lottery 5 out of 36, the prize of the first category (guessing 5 combination numbers) is by no means played in every draw and this is done with only one goal - to maintain the interest of players in this game due to the rapid increase in the jackpot amount by constantly injecting money into it. This no longer suggests that numbers in the state lotto do not fall out randomly.

Number of winners of the second category prizes in the draws gosloto lotteries 6 out of 45 and 5 out of 36(coincidence of 5 out of 6 numbers and coincidence of 4 out of 5 numbers in a combination, respectively) - constantly seems to be adjusted to certain limits.

In the lottery 5 out of 36 the number of guessing 4 numbers out of 5 often never exceeds 30 people in order to leave a range for choosing the 5th number in the combination of the lottery generator - thus main prize of the 1st category is not played and accumulates up to a certain value. Subsequently, it is not broken by random people and displayed on "Funding Public Expenditure".

Although, in principle, we will never check this behind the dead statistics of the results of the draws - whether the number of winners of the second category prize actually ranges from 13-30 people, or only 2, or maybe no one at all.

Numbers may not fall out randomly, but in a completely definite and convenient way for individuals so that the number of winners was 0, but for all those who play through the site stoloto.ru and follow the game in draw results certain amounts of payments to the winners will be displayed so that players can see the imaginary and falsified results of the draws (picture above) and be convinced that there are winners and they are paid real money - you can’t check this!

And believe me, programmatically implementing such a scheme does not seem too difficult!

Thus, the money collected for the draw from draw to draw can not be distributed among real players (payments to non-existent winners), but go to well-defined "offshore" funds of the management of the state lotto and other government agencies.

I do not argue, small amounts up to 6000 r. there is a meager chance of winning, but large jackpots (more than 5-300 million rubles) and prizes of the second category - you are unlikely to ever win.

Invented stories of the winners can really touch the soul, but falsifying them, as well as finding the right people who play the role of millionaires, is also not difficult - this is not only the opinion of our specialists.

For example, let's take the State Lottery 5 out of 36 (with a "higher probability" of winning - 1 to 300,000).

The cost of 126 combinations was about 4000-5000 rubles.

Bottom line - no winnings! At the same time, employees of "one hundred loto" note that every fourth combination wins.

The summary of all of the above is as follows:

The choice is yours to play or not to play Russian lotteries, but honesty and openness of the lottery are still important!

Now that open official foreign lotteries online for Russians- the opportunity to win the American or European Jackpot (up to 1.5 billion dollars) through verified lottery sites of Mega Lottery agents (www.MegaLotter.Ru) - has become a reality!

*All bets made for the test of "Russian state lotteries" were made with money won in foreign lotteries (powerball, eurojackpot, euromillions, megamillions), which are held with real draw commissions live on TV channels of the countries participating in these lotteries.

Hi all! The business expert of the Papa Pomog portal Denis Kuderin is with you! I will tell you whether it is worth participating in the lottery in terms of mathematics, and how game theory relates to practice.

Everyone who purchases a ticket has the chance to take a big jackpot in the lottery. Another thing is that the mathematical expectation of this probability can exceed all conceivable limits.

Are there ways to increase the chances of success? Is it possible to win the lottery regularly? What are the biggest winnings in the history of Russian and foreign lotteries? You will find detailed answers to these and other questions in a new article on our website!

Is it possible to win the lottery - the opinion of mathematicians and experts

You don't have to go to college, be a wealthy heir, or have superpowers to win the lottery. You just need to buy a ticket and believe in your luck. All lottery winners are not celestials at all, but ordinary citizens whom we meet on the way to work or see at the next table in a cafe.

That is why the lottery is charming because it gives everyone a chance - regardless of education, intelligence, bank account, place of work. Some even manage to hit the jackpot by buying a ticket for the only time in their lives. However, more often than not, winning becomes a reward for months and years of patience - regular participation in circulation.

Skeptics believe that the lottery is profitable only for those who arrange it. But optimists are sure that Gosloto, Sportloto and other popular draws are the real way to wealth.

What does science say? Mathematics allows for the probability of winning any lottery ticket at any given time. Another thing is how high this probability is. Another point: in the lottery, the random factor plays a decisive role. If, say, strategy is important in many card games or sports betting, then here the ways of playing and the intellectual preparation of the participant have little effect on the results.

Another important concept from game theory is distance. It is the distance that is the main obstacle on the way of ordinary participants in the circulation to the main win. In practice, this means that the expectation of a win does not have a certain duration. Unsuccessful runs in no way increase the chances of winning.

In other words, even if you play the lottery for six months, a year, 15 years, the probability of winning from this will not increase, but will always be approximately equal.

All lotteries are divided into two types - instant And circulation.

Instant lotteries

In the first case, you will find out the result immediately, as they say, without leaving the cash register. The standard drawing method is extremely simple: the player just needs to remove the scratch layer or unfold the hidden part of the ticket.

The beauty of this method is that you do not have to wait until the weekend for the draw, and you get most of the prizes right on the spot. True, if you hit the jackpot, you will have to get in touch with the organizers of the event and receive your winnings at the company's office.

Instant lotteries have the right to arrange any supermarkets and commercial organizations. As a rule, the winnings here are modest, but their probability (if the draw is carried out fairly) is not difficult to calculate.

Circulation

This is a more common type of lottery with a solid prize pool.

Such lotteries are also divided into two types:

1. The participant himself chooses numbers from a certain range - for example, 5 out of 36.
2. Player cards initially have numbers.

The first type is more popular because it leaves the participant complete “creative freedom”. The ability to cross out numbers on its own gives rise to entire strategic systems and mathematical theories.

There are hundreds of "winning" strategies, but the truth is that this does not affect the total number of winners. No matter how difficult the mathematical method of guessing is, even if it increases your chances of winning by hundredths of a percent, the probability indicator still remains in an unattainable range.

One day I asked my university math teacher: How do you visualize the probability of winning the lottery?

He answered like this:

“Imagine a huge railroad container with small copper coins. One of these coins is gold. You have one or more attempts to pull out of the container, without looking, exactly the gold one. Do you think you have a good chance?" Maybe that's why people with mathematical education rarely play the lottery?

However, the above example does not negate the fact that regularly one of our compatriots or inhabitants of the planet becomes a millionaire by taking a jackpot or a big win.

If you are interested in specific probability indicators, then this table is at your service:

These are current indicators: the probability varies depending on the number of participants and tickets purchased. And don't be confused by the presence of foreign companies on the list - many Russians regularly buy tickets from foreign companies and win.

How to win the lottery - TOP 5 working ways

So, there are about as many methods of play as there are players. Thousands of participants are sure that they are following the only true winning strategy, it's just that "their time has not yet come." And this, from a mathematical point of view, is an absolute truth: all strategies have approximately equal chances of winning.

However, there are several methods that make these chances more real. And if at least a few players can use these tips to improve their well-being, then the selection was not in vain.

I’ll warn you right away: people who are gambling and not capable of self-control should not engage in lotteries, sports betting, online games, etc. at all. The desire to recoup will override a reasonable approach. And no strategies will help to return the money spent.

Method 1. Lottery Syndicate

This method is especially popular with foreign lottery players. A group of people buys the tickets, and then distributes the winnings according to the shares contributed.

Without a special mathematical education, it is clear that the more tickets you buy, the higher the chances of winning. Syndicates use this elementary principle for their own purposes. The easiest way to organize a syndicate is to suggest it to your friends.

Conditional example

Lottery ticket costs 100 rubles. Do you want to close immediately 200 digital combinations. For this you will need 20 000 rubles. Until you are ready to risk that kind of money alone. You organize a syndicate from 10 people and each invests in the circulation of 2 000 rubles. Monetary losses in case of failure are reduced, and the probability of winning is vice versa.

There are well-known and long-term lottery syndicates not only abroad, but also in Russia. Not so long ago, such an association won about half a million in Russian Lotto. And one syndicate of bus drivers from the UK "raised" about 38 000 000 pounds ( 1.7 billion rubles).

practical advice

Never play in a syndicate by borrowing money from other members, and do not lend yourself to play either. It is noticed that such actions lead to negative results or conflicts in case of winning.

Method 2. High-Circulation Approach

Another simple method to increase your chances with minimal effort. Choose the most optimal combination of numbers in your opinion and bet several draws ahead at once. Many lottery organizers have this option. No need to "warm your head" and invent strategies - bet on your favorite numbers until the combination plays out.

There are cases when people put such combinations for years, and what is most remarkable, in the end they won.

Method 3. Playing with a deployed bet

This option drastically increases the number of combinations. The strategy is suitable for games in which the player chooses the winning numbers on his own. For example, in “5 out of 36” you choose not 5, but 6 numbers or 7. And although such a ticket will cost you more, all combinations of the numbers you proposed will play, and the winning amount will increase significantly if you win.

Method 4. Participation in distribution draws

First, let's define the term.

Distribution runs– drawings of large super prizes accumulated over past games are divided between the winners of the current draw.

The regularity of such an event is regulated by the rules of the company, but at least once a year the organizer is obliged to distribute financial surpluses.

The big jackpot really increases the size of the played bet. Particularly large winnings are most often found in distribution draws. Sometimes the accumulated amount reaches fantastic proportions, while the cost of the ticket does not change. Simply put, you get more for the same money.

Method 5. Psychological analysis

In any game, questions of psychology are important. Loto is no exception. Let's call this technique "Down with stereotypes!" It is based on the simple truth that most participants, when choosing numbers, stop at the first 60-70% of options.

For example, in "7 out of 49" people use numbers from 1 to 31 more often. This is logical - everyone likes memorable dates - wedding days, date and month of birth, etc. Picking numbers after 31 won't increase your chances, but if those numbers work, the amount you win will be much higher, since such combinations are used by a limited percentage of participants.

Conspiracies and prayers to win a large amount of money in the lottery

It is impossible not to mention the alternative ways and the "mystical" aspect of the game. Many players firmly believe in conspiracies, rituals, happy days, amulets, rabbit feet and other rituals.

Below I have listed the most famous:

Prayer for winning

Match numbers, numbers and bring me good luck,

Although I did not win yesterday, today everything will be different,

I'll take at least a million

I play a simple game...

Numerous films, books and TV shows form a kind of cult around lotteries and gambling. Incredible luck has become a kind of cultural phenomenon that the organizers of all kinds of games exploit.

Indeed, there have been cases of almost impossible happy coincidences in the history of lotteries.

This is still happening: for the first time in his life, a person buys a ticket for change, which he was given at the post office, and becomes a millionaire.

Conspiracy to win a large amount of money in the lottery

Coins jingle, banknotes rustle,

And the toad sat on the gold,

I'm dropping money

I'm sure of it

There will be no limit to wealth!

To believe or not to believe in rituals, prayers, conspiracies and cases is a personal matter for everyone. Let me just say that healthy optimism has never bothered anyone. Believing in your own luck works as a plus: at least such people calmly perceive failures.

A positive attitude and self-confidence help more than a pessimistic mood.

Scientific fact: optimists win the lottery much more often. Although it is likely that the reason for this distribution is simple: pessimists are less likely to buy lottery tickets.

People who have won large sums in the lottery in Russia and in the world

Since there are jackpots in nature, it means that someone wins them periodically. There are many examples of big, big, incredibly huge wins. Such examples are the best motivator for new participants in the draw, so the organizers of the games popularize such events in every possible way.

I won’t go far - just a few months ago, a resident of Novosibirsk won at Stoloto more than 300 million rubles . A person purchased a ticket through the site by paying 100 rubles. A resident of Voronezh won 506 million rubles in the same lottery. See how it happened in the video below:

And a resident of Sochi in 2017 won 371 million V Gosloto "7 out of 49". So far, this is the biggest win in Gosloto.

Sums from 100 to 200 million rubles citizens of the Russian Federation win every year.

Among the winners are people from various social groups - security guards, doctors, pensioners, entrepreneurs. The geography is also extensive: both megacities and settlements with an unknown name are represented.

As for foreign "lucky ones", their amounts are even more solid:

• 185 million euros went to the 2012 EuroMillions winner from Scotland;
• in 2007 in the US, a trucker and a New Jersey couple shared the top prize of $390 million in Mega Millions;
• in 2011 "big score" 185 euro in EuroMillions went to another married couple;
• on the ticket of the same lottery 168 million euros"raised" in 2016 by a cleaner from Belgium;
• in 2017 in PowerBall played the jackpot in 758 million dollars - a lucky ticket was purchased by a resident of Massachusetts.

Among the winners, those who have previously purchased tickets for many years in a row predominate. But there are those who bought the winning ticket quite by accident.

Technologies of winning in popular lotteries

Let's analyze the three most popular lotteries in the Russian Federation.

If you do not yet know the rules and nuances of Gosloto and other popular games, do not skip this section.

Russian loto

Perhaps every resident of Russia knows the host of this game by sight. The rules of the game are as simple as a day: you choose tickets with already indicated combinations of numbers from 1 to 90. Drawings are held on weekends.

How to improve your chances:

1. If you do not purchase several tickets, take those in which the numbers do not repeat.
2. On the site you have the right to choose tickets with your favorite numbers.
3. Do not miss the drawings of "Kubyshka" - draws with an accumulation fund.

In addition to cash prizes, apartments are raffled off here.

Gosloto 4 out of 20

It was in this game that the Novosibirsk recently won 300,000,000 rubles .

The point is clear from the title: player chooses 4 numbers from 20 possible. And if you guess the numbers in 2 fields at once, you will become a multimillionaire.

If you want to increase the probability of winning, make a detailed bet, that is, mark not 4 numbers, but 5 or more.

Gosloto 5 of 36

Similar to the previous lottery, only there are even more numbers, and therefore combinations. There are two super prizes at once. Statistics show that thanks to the game, a new millionaire appears in Russia every week.

The chances, as well as the amount of possible winnings, are increased by the deployed bet. In addition, you have the right to choose how many draws your ticket will take part in. The maximum number of draws is 20. The "multibet" option will allow you to fill in many tickets at once with automatic selection of numbers.

Where to play the lottery online

All of these lotteries, as well as most of the others, have online resources. It is much more convenient and faster to bet on the Internet: this way you save time, and in some cases you have a wider selection of combinations.

Making a bet online is as easy as shelling pears: go to the website of Gosloto or another lottery organizer and follow simple and understandable instructions.

As a rule, the first bet algorithm consists of 4 stages:

1. Registration on the site.
2. Selecting a lottery option.
3. Filling out a ticket.
4. Waiting for the draw and checking the winnings.

There are also mobile versions that make the process even easier and faster.

For example, you can play popular world lotteries online through this international lottery operator.

If you prefer Russian "producers", then welcome to the Gosloto website.

FAQ

And now the answers to the most pressing questions of users.

Question 1. Who is strictly contraindicated in playing the lottery? Svetlana, 26 years old, Murmansk

Partially, I have already answered this question above: to everyone who is not able to control emotions and financial spending. There are many such people, and gambling addiction is officially recognized as a disease. If you can't handle your emotions while gambling, it's best not to participate in lotteries.

Question 2. How to win a million in the lottery? Ilya, 22 years old, Penza

The easiest way is to use all our tips and play regularly.

Question 3. Is it true that beginners are lucky and if I play for the first time, then the chance of success is higher than that of the "experienced" ones? Dmitry, 24 years old, Naberezhnye Chelny

This is only partly true. In the event that a beginner uses a strategy that is free from the prejudices of inveterate players, his chances increase. But if he follows the beaten path and makes the same mistakes as ordinary players, the probability of winning will be average.

Question 4. How to win a large amount in the lottery on the first try? Marat, 22 years old, Makhachkala

The only possible option is to make a big bet with many combinations. But this advice is only suitable for those who have a large gaming bank (initial capital).

Question 5. Is there a win-win strategy for a 100% return on investment in lottery tickets? Zoya, 31 years old, Omsk

Unfortunately no. If such a strategy existed, the organizers of the draws would go bankrupt and take up other business projects.

Question 6. Are there free lotteries with real money winnings? Peter, 42 years old, Krasnodar

The trouble is that many of these projects are pure scams. How do they make money, you ask, if the tickets are free? Human psychology works for scammers, in which scammers are well versed.

Simple example

You are announced that you have won, but for this you need to enter and send the card details. Needless to say, you will no longer see any winnings or money on the card.

Question 7. How to win the Euromillions lottery, I heard that it is very popular? Vadim, 33 years old, Magnitogorsk

Everything is simple here. Everyone has the right to play the Eurolottery: go to the official resource, register and play. In the Russian Federation, it is not forbidden by law to play foreign online games, and even more so to win in them. The site has a Russian version, so there will be no problems with understanding the rules and conditions.

Instead of a conclusion

Friends, as you can see, everyone can win the lottery. Yes, chances are low. Below I have provided a brief summary of the article, facts that will help you better understand the lottery topic and succeed.

This must be remembered:

1. The mathematical probability of winning does not depend on the duration of the lottery game.
2. There are methods to increase both the probability and the size of the winnings.
3. In well-known foreign lotteries, jackpots are larger.
4. It is more convenient to buy and fill tickets online.
5. In the Russian Federation, winnings are subject to income tax in 13%, and when winning prizes in quizzes and promotions of companies are taxed at the rate 35%

And more about chances and probabilities: American Joan Ginter 4 times won over a million and enriched in total by $20 million . Forbes journalists calculated that the mathematical chances of winning big four times are 1 to 18 septillion (septillion - 10 to the 24th power). In other words, the chances are practically non-existent. And yet it happened!

One way to earn a large amount of money quickly is to win the lottery. Although this activity is associated with great risk, if you analyze the rules of the game and identify the main trends, you can develop winning strategies. Also, to win, you need faith in success and a little luck.
