The Euro Millions in Spain is the Legitimate Lottery in the Europe with the goal to provide better regulation and sharing of the lottery profits by member syndicates.
When the Euro Millions in Spain was launched in February 2004, it came under heavy criticism both at home and abroad. There were fears that the creation of a national lottery wouldregulation andmongering by interested parties.
There was much debate about the social impact of so much sharing of the lottery income. It raised the question ‘Does the E-lottery Need a New Audience?’
The Spanish lottery because of its extremely competitive double zero draw syndicate option – the 24 seater syndicate Euro Millions game – also proved extremely popular with Spanish lottery syndicates.
The UK National Lottery in the Euromillions game was the next best thing and was perhaps more sensible approach as the E-lottery needed a larger base of players. Both the Spanish and UK lotteries have the advantage of using an advantage system which raises the odds and percentages of winning a prize. As Spain does not have a separate lottery there, the E-lottery has proved far more popular with its massive success in Europe.
However, what E-lottery gives players in terms of social interaction and a far better chance of winning a prize is possibly the greatest feature and advantage the E-lottery offers. Because of the number of entry slots – about 36 million – players can expect to win a European lottery prize on average almost every week.
The Spanish Superdraws and Euro Millions game are very different to the lotteries as players there choose their own numbers and share the prize pot. Therefore, the possibility of winning a prize is slightly lower than in the UK lottery draw as the prizes are fully guaranteed.
The Spanish Superdraw, unlike the UK lottery draw, allows players to share in the prize pool on a winners bet. When the maximum of players buy 36 lines (that is effectively buying 4 tickets for each line) the odds of winning a prize are roughly the same as the UK lottery draw.
This is because the Spanish lottery, like most in Spain, is drawn for 6 out of 49 drawn numbers. Therefore, on a 36 number ticket, there are 27 lucky numbers, while on a ticket bought at a Spanish Superdraw game, only 26 lucky numbers can be selected from a pool of 49 numbers.
Therefore, it would appear that buying more tickets for fewer numbers increases your chances of winning the Spanish lottery. However, this is not the case. Buying more tickets does not increase your odds of winning the Spanish lottery. The odds remain the same as buying fewer tickets.
The E-lottery offers a unique opportunity to the world of lottery playing. By offering a selection of lucky lottery numbers players can ensure their character is a winner in the lottery and boost their chances of several large prizes. Unlike other lottery games players cannot buy their way in to a cash syndicate. Once you have purchased a ticket, you will always have that chance in every Spanish Superdraw game.
The E-lottery is operated by the Kartupoker Gaming Commission, which is a not for profit organization. The lottery operates using a 3 digit number less than 1 which means the number can be selected by any player who can write it.
When the player buys their ticket, they are sent a form to take home along with the randomly selected winning lottery numbers. The game is available to players around the world and doesn’t require Spanish residents to purchase a ticket in order to play.
In late 2009, a television advertising campaign was launched in Spain entitled ‘Un Serzone’, which is Spanish for ‘middle ground’. This campaign encourages optimism and offers the chance for viewers to bet on a range of topics. One of the options being a range of different lottery numbers, including the El Gordo, the general lottery or the safest bet in the El Gordo.
All of the money is paid out instantly following the lottery results, except for the funds raised through ticket sales, unless the ticket is stolen. unlike other global lotteries, the prize fund of the El Gordo is jointed with the country’s general budget. This means that, despite any increase in ticket sales, there is always sufficient funds to pay prizes when they are won.
