Combinations 6 out of 45. Gosloto: how to play and win? Rules and tips

During my childhood, a distinctive feature of Sunday mornings was the showing of a program dedicated to the Sportsloto drawing on TV. For some reason, my parents always watched it, although they did not play this lottery.

For me, the process of choosing the next number seemed like some kind of magic. A big, pot-bellied, round drum, in which balls with numbers are spinning fervently, and at a certain moment, which you usually wait for so long - a miracle! One ball rolls into the groove below. And the presenter joyfully calls out the number written on the ball.

Now such a program no longer exists, but similar lotteries remain.

One of these is the All-Russian State Lottery - Gosloto, the income from which finances the construction of sports facilities and complexes. The first drawing took place on November 10, 2008.

How to play Gosloto

find an official lottery distributor in your city;
receive a coupon for free and fill it out in accordance with the rules;
give the coupon to the distributor: he will scan it with a lottery terminal;
pay the lottery bet;
receive a lottery ticket printed by the terminal;
wait for the results of the draw.

The rules of Gosloto are simple, as in the famous Soviet lottery Sportloto. The principle of the game is to try to guess a certain number of numbers given by the reel in different combinations: 5 numbers out of 36, 6 numbers out of 45 and 7 out of 49.

The lottery coupon consists of six playing fields, which are marked with letters in alphabetical order from “A” to “E”. In each field you need to mark a certain number of numbers, depending on the type of combination (5 out of 36, 6 out of 45 or 7 out of 49). In the prize draw, winning combinations of numbers are determined using a lottery machine. To win you must guess at least 2 numbers. The prize amount for guessed numbers is fixed.

If you fill out more coupons, the likelihood of receiving a prize will also increase. You can also fill in the fields “automatically”, then the numbers will be selected randomly by the terminal when the lottery bet is paid.

If you manage to guess all the numbers from the combination, the winner receives a super prize.

Super prize or jackpot is the amount of the unplayed prize fund, which moves from draw to draw until all numbers from the combination are won. If several people become winners, they will share the super prize among themselves in equal parts.

The cost of participation in Gosloto is the size of the lottery bet. It is calculated like this:

cost of the game combination * number of selected combinations * number of draws in which the lottery bet is involved

Let's look at the features of playing each combination:

“Gosloto” 5 out of 36. The rules are as follows: There are 36 numbers in six playing fields and only 5 of them are winning. One combination costs 10 rubles. Draws of this combination take place daily.
“Gosloto” 6 out of 45. The rules are as follows: There are 45 numbers in six playing fields, 6 of which are winning. The cost of one combination is 30 rubles. The circulation of this game is played 3 times a week.
“Gosloto” 7 out of 49. The rules in this case are similar: There are 49 numbers in six playing fields; to win you need to guess all 7 numbers. One combination of numbers costs 40 rubles. The 7/49 lottery draws take place on Sunday - once a week.

Previously, Gosloto draws were broadcast on TV channels. Today, lottery draws can only be viewed in recordings that are posted on the Internet after 23-00 on the day of the draw. The video can be found on the youtube portal.

Is it possible to win the lottery and how to do it? Which lotteries are more profitable to play? As life practice shows, winning the lottery is an event that can happen to any person.

Good day, dear readers of the business magazine HeatherBober.ru. Alexander Berezhnov and Vitaly Tsyganok are with you.

Having won some local lotteries and “smart casinos” ourselves, we generalized the topic of winning the lottery, talked with friends who regularly make good money in this business and presented our vision of this issue.

To win, you do not need to have a higher education, be the son of rich parents, or graduate from school with a gold medal. To win, you only need luck and faith in your own luck. It is faith that makes a person buy a lottery ticket.

Some lucky people need to buy a lottery ticket only once to win, others buy lotteries regularly (sometimes for several years in a row) until they finally receive a reward for patience and perseverance.

These questions are of interest to many - not only avid players and gambling enthusiasts - read our article about working methods and profitable technologies for playing the lottery, as well as about the largest winnings in history.

1. Is it possible to win the lottery and what should you know to do so?

Skeptics believe that only lottery organizers are the winners; optimists believe that Sportloto, Gosloto and other popular lotteries are a real way to achieve real financial well-being.

Let’s say right away that it is, of course, possible to win the lottery, and everyone who plays has a chance of winning the jackpot. Probability theory and mathematics with basic statistics allow for the possibility of winning any lottery ticket at any time.

However, in game theory, there is also such a thing as distance, and it is distance that is the main obstacle on the path of ordinary players to the desired wealth. In other words, a fair amount of time may pass from the moment you expect to win until you actually win. You can play the lottery for a day, a month, a year, ten years - and the probability of winning will always be approximately the same.

In this article we will try not to touch on the “mystical” aspect of the game, but it should still be mentioned.

There are players who believe in good luck spells, winning streaks, lucky days and numbers, rabbit's feet and rituals. Many films, books and television shows are devoted to examples of incredible luck. However, in reality, everything is more prosaic: when playing the lottery, we are dealing with the mathematical theory of the game and nothing more.

Of course, self-confidence and healthy optimism are conditions that work more as a plus than as a minus. A person who believes in luck is more likely to be right than a hopeless pessimist.

Currently, online lotteries have become very popular, which are almost no different from the “paper” and offline lotteries we are used to.

EuroMillions is a Friday lottery game played by players across Europe. The game features players from nine countries, including Austria, Belgium, France, Ireland, Luxembourg, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United States.
The prize consists of bets placed in each of these nine countries, and the top prize starts at €15 million. If the jackpot is not won within a week, the prize will roll over to the next week.
The biggest recorded win per person was €115 million and the biggest jackpot was €183 million. These huge jackpots have made EuroMillions one of the most successful and exciting lotteries in the entire world.

5. Examples of people with the biggest winnings in lottery history
There are a great many examples of people who received the biggest and biggest winnings in the lottery. If there are jackpots, then there are people who win them periodically.
Meet the biggest winnings in the history of world and domestic lotteries.
Among domestic lotteries, the podium is occupied by Albert Begrakyan, who hit the Gosloto jackpot in the amount of 100 million rubles in 2009.
The lucky guy bought lottery tickets regularly. Before winning, Albert worked as a security guard in a store.

I have long wanted to compare the probability of winning in Stoloto lotteries and find out which of them are the most successful for the player.

So what happened:

Russian Lotto, Housing Lottery, Golden Horseshoe— coincidence of all 30 numbers of the ticket on move 87. Probability 1:3.4

For 2 months we have been keeping statistics on the game (honesty test!) in Russian lotteries on one popular resource

Do you seriously think that playing lotteries with closed draws and withdrawals animated video broadcasts, is it possible to win the jackpot?

Then we go to you!

We will empirically prove to you how players are deceived on this resource. Really serious prizes and jackpots (1st and 2nd categories - do not fall to random people!). Call it what you want, up to the laundering of gaming money.

Statistics of bets of one of our players on the main lotteries (6 out of 45 & 5 out of 36):

For example, one of the bets on 140 combinations of numbers in the state lottery lottery is 6 out of 45 with the probability of winning the jackpot - 1 in 8,000,000, and accordingly the probability of winning secondary prizes is an order of magnitude higher.

A detailed bet of 8 numbers was placed on each of the 6 fields of the ticket:

as you can see, the cost of this bet was 14 000 R. - the total winnings were - 1500 R.

On the other hand, this may seem like an absolutely normal set of circumstances, but not when comrades playing in parallel place bets for amounts more than 30,000 rub. in each draw, covering the most popular combinations and numbers on 6 ticket fields - winning measly 1500rub.

Many of the combinations that appear during successive draws really make one think of plans planned 20 minutes before the start of the draws and automatically generated combinations, because sometimes the numbers that appear are far from random!

There have been cases of loss in two consecutive draws 3 and 4 repeating numbers in combination, which, in principle, according to probability theory, is practically impossible, the probability is 0.000001%

Those. support absolutely officially answers our question:

Player: What guarantees are there that the combinations that come out (rapido, 6 out of 45, 5 out of 36) are not automatically selected at random, based on tickets (bets) already purchased using some "da Vinci code" generator (just these 20 minutes before the start of the drawing, after the bets close)?

Technical support response:There are no guarantees, you must trust us by default, since we have a circulation commission and number generators patented by special structures.

So, it turns out that we are obliged to believe that the money is not laundered in this way, but is actually won by ghost players, which is also impossible to trace.

It would be good if there was also a live broadcast of drawings with real people on the drawing commission, whom we could see, and, accordingly, the process of selecting numbers by lottery specialists. device.

Perhaps the number of people winning in each draw is a fiction that is presented to us to divert our eyes, that supposedly they really win against us, but it is not possible to trace this.

The next important point:

Why is the distribution of category 2 and other secondary prizes often between a clearly defined number of participants?

How, in principle, can this be possible according to the theory of probability, if the number of players is more than 100,000 people, and the number of bets sometimes exceeds 300,000.

ON A NOTE: In the lottery gosloto 6 of 45- the probability of guessing 5 numbers out of 6 (winning a prize of the 2nd category) is an order of magnitude less than guessing 5 numbers out of 5 in lottery 5 out of 35(1st category prize), but for some reason the number of people guessing 5 numbers in the 6 out of 45 lottery is always more than 1 (from 1 to 10).

In the 5 out of 36 lottery, the first category prize (guessing 5 combination numbers) is not played out in every draw and this is done for only one purpose - to maintain the players’ interest in this game due to the rapid increase in the jackpot amount through the constant injection of money into it. This can no longer help but suggest that numbers in gosloto are far from random.

Number of winners of second category prizes in drawings Gosloto lotteries 6 out of 45 and 5 out of 36(matching 5 out of 6 numbers and matching 4 out of 5 numbers in a combination, respectively) - constantly seems to be adjusted to a certain framework.

In the lottery 5 out of 36 the number of people who guessed 4 numbers out of 5 often never exceeds 30 people in order to leave a range for choosing the 5th number in the combination of the lottery generator - thus 1st category main prize is not played out and accumulates to a certain value. Subsequently, it is not broken by random people and displayed on "financing government spending."

Although, in principle, we will never check this using the dead statistics of the results of the draws - whether in fact the number of winners of the second category prize fluctuates between 13-30 people or only 2, or maybe no one at all.

The numbers may not fall randomly, but are quite definite and convenient for individuals so that the number of winners was 0, but for everyone playing through the site stoloto.ru and following the game in results of the drawing certain amounts of payments to the winners will be displayed so that players can see the imaginary and falsified results of the drawings (picture above) and be convinced that there are winners and they are paid real money - this cannot be verified!

And believe me, implementing such a scheme programmatically does not seem too difficult!

Thus, the money collected for the circulation from drawing to drawing can be distributed not among real players (payments to non-existent winners), but go to well-defined “offshore” funds of the management of State Loto and other government agencies.

I don’t argue, small amounts up to 6,000 rubles. there is a tiny chance of winning, but you are unlikely to ever win large jackpots (more than 5-300 million rubles) and prizes of the second category.

Invented stories of winners can really touch the soul, but falsifying them, as well as finding the right people playing the role of millionaires is also not difficult - this is the opinion of not only our experts.

For example, let’s take the State Loto lottery 5 out of 36 (with a “higher probability” of winning - 1 in 300,000).

The cost of 126 combinations was about 4000-5000 rubles.

Result - no winnings! At the same time, “one hundred lotto” employees note that every fourth combination wins.

The summary of all of the above is as follows:

The choice is yours to play or not to play Russian lotteries, but the honesty and openness of the lottery are still important!

Now that it's open official foreign online lotteries for Russians- the opportunity to win the American or European Jackpot (up to 1.5 billion dollars) through proven lottery sites of Mega Lottery agents (www.MegaLotter.Ru) - has become a reality!

*All bets made for the test of “Russian state lotteries” were placed on money won in foreign lotteries (powerball, eurojackpot, euromillions, megamillions), which were broadcast with real drawing commissions live on TV channels of the countries participating in these lotteries.
