Lottery winners will get rid of money in the quickest way
The two previous Lotto seven-way jackpots have become a “solo for two”, this time & two players share the pot. The undisputed leader is the Lower Austrian who hit the first seven-way jackpot four years ago and won almost 15 million euros. In any case, on Friday morning between 100 and 130 lottery picks per second arrived at the Austrian Lotteries data center, on Saturday it was 150 to 200 picks per second. Roughly speaking, there were around 9.8 million tips on almost two million betting slips in the draw.
With large jackpots, the quick tip has the absolute largest share of the total number of bets at 60 percent; 35 percent are accounted for by the normal certificate, which is also checked manually, and 5 percent by the system certificate. With the two sixes after seven-fold jackpots, the dominance of the quick tip is even clearer: both were scored per quick tip, with the 15 million man from Lower Austria trying his luck with five tips and his colleague from Upper Austria going on a six-hunt with twelve tips.
In the end, coincidence and luck count
The question that has been asked several times as to whether you are more likely to win with a quick tip than with a normal ticket can still (not) be answered unequivocally, namely with: It doesn’t matter. The decisive factor is not the type of tip, but their number. With a single bet, the probability of a six is around 1:8 million, and a second bet doubles the chance to 1:4 million. And so forth. And: In the case of seven-fold jackpots, the even to odd ratio was quite high at seven to five. In the end, however, chance decides anyway and the players need luck.
