When you first come across the part of the Euromillions Euro lotto that is the El Gordo Loteria, you definitely need to know more. Boasting one of the biggest jackpots of our time, this game of hazard offers pots ranging from 84 million to 2.6 billion Euros. This is just one of the lottery’s claims to fame. In this lottery the odds of winning something are an astonishing one in six, and these prizes can be any of more than thirteen thousand different amounts. These are actually astonishing odds when viewed in context with the majority of other lotteries!

There is one draw each month under the banner of the Euromillions Euro lottery. Even more substantial prizes can be won at featured draws held during three months around the year. The special draws are scheduled to be in January, summer, and at Christmas: these are, respectively, El Nio, San Ildefonso and El Gordo.

Balls numbered between 00,000 and 84,999 are not what you expect to see from lottery systems, but the El Gordo lottery employs a unique system taking full advantage of them. 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 decide the amount of the prize. Wondering how you enter this drawing? You have two options; the first is that you can get a “serie” or a full ticket. The other option is cheaper; called a “décimo” valued at one-tenth of a full ticket. These tickets have an equal chance of winning, although of course their payout is proportional to what you spend at the start. This is the reason that the e-lottery scheme is popular with many Euromillions Euro lotto players. When you buy into the e-lottery system, you are guaranteed a prize. You simply buy your way into the El Gordo Lotto syndicate which will then divide you up into teams. With each team numbered between 0 – 9, the last digit on the winning ball picks the winning team and they take the money. An even distribution of the spoils amongst the team follows. After that, subscriptions are offered ready for the draw held next month. The concept of sharing the prizes is cause for concern to some people. The thing to remember is there’s still plenty to share out when the total prize was 2.6 billion Euros. With a guaranteed win at every draw, the syndicate is both more affordable and less stress as you know you’ll get a return. There is plainly no smarter way to play.
