How to play Mega-Sena?
In Mega-Sena, players can become millionaires by matching all six numbers drawn. It is also possible to win smaller prizes by matching four or five of the sixty numbers available on the betting slip.
To participate, the player must mark between six and twenty numbers on the ticket or opt for the “Surpresinha” option, where the system chooses the numbers randomly. There is also the “Teimosinha” option to compete with the same bet in multiple successive draws.
Betting and pool information
The minimum bet, which covers six numbers, costs R$5.00. The more numbers the player chooses, the higher the cost, but the chances of winning the grand prize also increase.
The Mega-Sena Pool allows group bets, which is a practical strategy for those looking to share costs. To participate, the player fills in the specific field on the ticket or asks the lottery attendant for assistance.
The minimum value for a syndicate is R$15.00, with each share costing at least R$6.00. A syndicate can have between two and one hundred shares, and accepts up to ten bets, all with the same number of predictions.
In addition, players can purchase shares in lottery syndicates organized by lottery shops, either in person or online through the official website, paying an additional service fee of up to 35%. However, online share purchases must be completed by 7:30 p.m. on the day of the draw, with a minimum value of R$20.00.
