Two bets, one from Campinas (SP) and the other from Santo Antônio do Jardim (SP), had a joint prize of R$ 167,800 on the Mega-Sena corner. The draw for the 2,600 contest took place on Saturday night (10). There were no matchmakers for the six dozen, resulting in the accumulation of the main prize. The numbers drawn were: 04 – 18 – 37 – 38 – 46 – 60.
According to information from Caixa Econômica Federal, both the winner of Campinas and Santo Antônio do Jardim made single bets, selecting only six dozens.
How to bet on the Mega-Sena?
To participate and compete for Mega-Sena prizes, it is possible to place bets until 7 pm (Brasília time), both in physical lottery shops across the country, as well as online, through the Caixa Econômica Federal website. In the case of online betting, it is necessary to register, be over 18 years old and provide credit card details.
When placing a bet, the player must choose from 6 to 20 numbers from those available on the ticket. It is also possible to opt for the “Surprise” option, in which the system chooses the numbers randomly. In addition, it is possible to compete with the same bet in 2, 4 or 8 consecutive draws, by selecting the “Teimosinha” option.
Mega-Sena offers the chance to fulfill the dream of becoming a millionaire, and each bet has its own winning odds, as mentioned earlier.
The probability of winning the prize
According to information from Caixa Econômica Federal, the probability of winning the millionaire prize in each Mega-Sena contest varies according to the number of dozens played and the type of bet made. For the single bet, with only six tens selected, which costs BRL 5, the probability of hitting the prize is 1 in 50,063,860.
On the other hand, in a bet with a maximum limit of 15 dozens, whose value is BRL 22,522.50, the probability of hitting the prize is 1 in 10,003.
