The Savvy Player’s Definitive Guide to the Elgordo Lottery

November 14th, 2009

The Elgordo Lottery is a part of the Euromillions Euro lotto, but if that’s all you’ve heard that’s really a bit thin. Famed for one of the world’s biggest jackpots, this game of chance offers payouts of between 84 million and two point six billion Euros. And yet there’s more. With over thirteen thousand prizes being offered the odds of winning something work out to around one per every six. Stunning odds when examined in context with other major lotteries!

With the Euromillions Euro lotto, one draw is made every month. Three months a year see special drawings promising even more substantive prizes. These 3 special lotteries take place in January, summer, and around Christmas: in order, they are El Nio, San Ildefonso and Elgordo.

Unlike typical lottery draw systems, the Elgordo Lottery uses balls with five digits printed on each one ranging from 00,000 to 84,999. The system makes use of two bowls, with one used determining the winning ticket, while the second decides the amount. Wondering how to enter this lottery? There are two options; first, you can get an entire ticket, called a “serie”. Also available for purchase is a “décimo”, worth one tenth of a full ticket. This is the cheaper option. Neither option is particularly cheap, however, and obviously neither has better odds of being a winner. Because of this the Euromillions Euro Lotto also offers an e-lottery system.

Everyone’s assured of winning a prize when they sign up for the e-lottery system. You will automatically be pooled into a team following your buy into the Elgordo Lottery syndicate. These teams are assigned a number from zero to nine, the last number on the winning ball in the draw being used to identify the team which wins the payoff. An equal distribution of the prize amongst the team follows. In anticipation of next month’s draw, the syndicate once again takes subscriptions to continue the e-lottery. Sharing the pots is cause for concern for some people. The thing to remember is there’s still plenty to share out when the original prize was 2.6 billion Euros. With a guaranteed win each month, the e-lottery syndicate is both less of a worry and more affordable. Really, there’s no better way to play…
