The Spanish Lottery “El Gordo”

el gordo syndicateSpain’s El Gordo draw (Lotería de Navidad) is the one of the richest lotteries in the world and is only drawn up to 6 times in a year. Typically Dec 22nd 2008 draw, there was a guaranteed prize pool of 2.6 billion euros.  There’s a huge number of prizes on offer and each ticket has up to 9 chances of winning in one single draw. Just take a look at the typical stats for the Dec 22nd 2008 draw! There was:
·         a guaranteed prize pool of €2.6 billion
·         195 jackpots of €3 million each
·         26,001,300 (26 million) individual cash prizes
The El Gordo draw happens up to 6 times in a year and the most popular by far of these draws is the Xmas draw occurring on or around the 22nd December.
The El Gordo lottery is drawn differently from other lotteries. Most lotteries draw 5 or 6 balls, each with an individual number on them, making up a combination of winning numbers. But with El Gordo, each ball has a five-digit number printed on it. These numbers typically range from 00,000 to 84,999, therefore tickets are limited and once they are sold out, no more are made available.
When the draw takes place, a ball with a five-digit number printed on it is drawn from a bowl - this is the winning number.  Another ball is drawn from a separate bowl displaying a prize amount.  These 2 balls are combined to provide the winning number and prize amount.
Tickets for El Gordo can be purchased either as a whole serie, or as a less expensive decimo (1/10th of a ticket/serie).
Following is a breakdown of prizes typical of the Dec 22nd 2008 draw which illustrates the reason as to why so many people (especially in the host country Spain) take part:-
