The E-Lottery System and El Gordo Lottery - a Guide
A key part of the Euromillions Euro lotto is the Loteria de Elgordo - and you should want to learn about this part. Boasting one of the world’s largest jackpots, this wager offers payouts up to two point six billion Euros. And yet there’s more. The chances of winning a prize of some sort are as high as one in six, with more than 13,000 different amounts. Not bad by the standards of the prizes pitched by comparable lotteries.
Each month the Euromillions Euro lotto holds a draw. Three months each year play host to bigger lotteries featuring even grander prizes. The most substantial of all the drawings is “Elgordo” which is held around Xmas, while the two other special drawings take place in January - “El Nio” - and the summer (”San Ildefonso”).
Unlike other lottery draw systems, the Elgordo lottery utilizes balls with five digits printed on each in a range from 00,000 to 84,999. During the draw one ball is selected from a bowl to identify the winning number while a second is pulled out of a second bowl to find the value of the prize. So how do you enter this lottery draw? There are two choices; first, you can purchase an entire ticket, called a “serie”. You can also choose a more affordable option called a “décimo”, which is worth one tenth of a full ticket. Neither alternative is particularly cheap, however, and equally neither has better odds of being a winner. This is the reason that the e-lottery system is used by many Euromillions Euro lotto players.
The e-lottery system can guarantee a prize for every participant. You will automatically be assigned a team following your buy into the Elgordo Lottery syndicate. With each team assigned a number from zero to nine when the draw is made, the last digit of the winning number determines which team receives the prize. An even division of the spoils amongst the team follows. Following that, subscriptions are offered for the syndicate ready for the draw held next month. Some players feel hesitant on hearing that they have to share these big payouts. But when you consider how much over two and a half billion Euros really is, there’s still lots of money to go around. You’ll find the syndicate program is far more cost effective, and knowing that you’ll share in a prize in each draw, you don’t have to worry about constantly losing. The syndicate is the truly smart way to go…
