Taking Part in the Spanish Elgordo Lottery Taking Advantage of the E-Lottery System
A key part of the Euromillions Euro lotto is the Elgordo Loteria which you may well wish to know more about. Boasting payouts that can be as high as more than two and a half billion Euros, the Elgordo Lottery offers one of the richest jackpots on a global scale. And neither is this the lottery’s only claim to fame! In this lottery the odds of winning something are an astonishing one in six, with more than 13,000 different amounts. That’s a remarkable rate when looked at in the context of other branded lotteries. Each month the Euromillions Eurolottery holds a draw. But three months a year are scheduled for bigger lotteries for grander prizes. These 3 special lotteries are scheduled to take place in January, summer, and at Christmas; these are, in order, El Nio, San Ildefonso and Elgordo (which is appropriately translated as: “the Fatso”). Unlike other lottery systems, the Elgordo Lottery uses balls sporting five digits apiece ranging from 00,000 to 84,999. The system requires two bowls, with one used to decide the winning number, while the second decides the prize value.
If you would like to get in on the action you can get a full ticket known as a “serie”. Also available for purchase is a “décimo”, worth one-tenth of a full ticket. This is the cheaper option. Neither alternative is particularly cheap, though, and obviously neither has a better chance of being one of the one in six winning tickets. As a result the Euromillions Euro Lottery has put an e-lottery system into place.
Everyone’s guaranteed to win a prize if participating in the e-lottery system. You just buy into the Elgordo Lottery syndicate where you’re pooled into teams. These teams are assigned an identifying number from 1-9, the last number on the winning ball in the draw being used to identify the team which will receive the prize. The prize is divided equally among the members. Afterward, subscriptions are offered for the syndicate ready for the next drawing.
Some players feel a little concerned when they hear that they have to share these jackpots. But when you consider how much 2.6 billion Euros really is, there’s still plenty for everybody. You’ll find the e-lottery program is far more cost effective, and with the knowledge that you’ll share in a prize in each draw, there are no worries about losing all the time. The e-lottery is the truly smart way to go…
