How are the draws going?

To determine the winning combination, the lottery equipment "Random Number Generator" is used. Accounting for bets and accrual of winnings are fully automated and exclude the possibility of third-party intervention. Only paid lottery receipts, which reflect the game combinations chosen by the participants, take part in the drawing of the prize fund of the circulation.

The winning combination consists of 6 numbers and is determined within a few seconds. After that, the results are automatically calculated, and the draw commission signs the protocol.

In accordance with Article 18 of the Federal Law “On Lotteries”, the organizer of the lottery creates a drawing commission to draw the prize fund of each lottery draw.

The functions of the draw commission include:

checking the readiness of lottery equipment for operation;
carrying out the drawing of the prize fund of the lottery;

After determining the winning combination, the results are calculated. Win bets in which 6, 5, 4 or 3 numbers match the numbers of the combination generated by the random number generator. A winning bet is also considered a bet in which 5 numbers match the numbers of the winning combination, and one number matches the number of the bonus ball. The prize fund of the game is 50% of the revenue.

The winnings in the game "Sportloto 6 out of 49" for 3 guessed numbers are fixed and amount to 150 rubles. Winnings in other categories are determined after calculating the winnings for 3 guessed numbers. The payout fund for all other categories is determined as the difference between the amount of the prize fund of the draw and the amount payable for 3 guessed numbers. This fund is distributed among the categories in the following percentage:

To pay out winnings for 4 guessed numbers - 22%
To pay out winnings for 5 guessed numbers - 10%
For payment of winnings for 5 guessed numbers + bonus ball - 16%
To pay out winnings for 6 guessed numbers (super prize) - 52% + accumulated super prize

If no one guesses 6 numbers in the current draw, the accumulated amount goes to the next draw. Thus, the super prize for 6 guessed numbers in the game "Sportloto 6 out of 49" accumulates from draw to draw until it is drawn. If during the year no one guesses all 6 numbers, a distribution draw is held.

The amount of winnings at the expanded bet (using the example of 6 guessed numbers) is determined as follows: the number of combinations of 6 numbers that can be made from the bet is calculated, after which the winnings for each combination are calculated and the total winnings are summed up.

A little about lotteries

In numerical lotteries, a single simple combination is equally likely, and is a "single indivisible entity." In other words, in the space of a complete array, all elements (mentally imagine - “cubes”) have the same size, therefore, there are no priority individual combinations. It is impossible to single out “universal combinations” in the full array that will “always” play better than the others, since the lottery drum or draw generator is equally probable! What is most striking is that even many experienced players do not understand this.

equiprobable distribution played combinations -
simple proof #1

Let's move on to the most natural statistics in number lotteries - combinatorial. To do this, you need to translate all the combinations that have played, for example, in the lottery 5 out of 36, into their serial number (index) in the full array. You can then scatter the distribution of these combinations in full array space, while respecting spacing and location in the draw history. Each dot on this graph represents the actual winning combination in the full array space. Since each individual combination is distributed equally throughout the array, we can divide this space into equal parts (sectors).

Divide the full array of 376992 combinations,
say - into 12 equal parts - sectors
- 31416 combinations.

All really played combinations at the moment in the lottery 5 out of 36
(equiprobable distribution), selected sector - any

Let's count the number of matches of each sector for the last 500 draws.
On average, there will be approximately the same number of combination hits in any sector - 41 times.
The chance of any sector to match is 376,992 / 31416 = 1 time in 12 runs (average)
Over 500 draws any sector will play 500/ 12= 41 times (average) or 4 times in 50 draws or 2 times in 25
If the combination plays in the selected sector, then the chance for the jackpot increases 12 times for one simple combination from this sector, and will be equal to 1 to 31416. If we have 10 combinations in the game, then 1 to 3141.

What is a single combination?

Let's see what a single combination is on the example of the 5 out of 36 lottery. There are 376,992 such combinations in this lottery. Each combination has its own serial number in the full array (the index is a cell).

First combination (000001) = 01-02-03-04-05 ...
Last combination (376992) = 32-33-34-35-36 = 376992 pieces

000001 _ 01-02-03-04-05
000002 _ 01-02-03-04-06
000003 _ 01-02-03-04-07
000004 _ 01-02-03-04-08
…….
…….
…….
002024 _ 01-02-07-11-30
002025 _ 01-02-07-11-31
002026 _ 01-02-07-11-32
…….
…….
174078 _ 04-21-25-32-34
174079 _ 04-21-25-32-35
…….
376992 _ 32-33-34-35-36

Absolutely any combination in the full array is no different from others in terms of the probability of a match.
To understand this better, you need to present 376,992 individual lottery balls, on which all 376,992 combinations have been designated.
It is difficult to imagine such an amount, and even more so to fit in the picture, I will show only a few balls out of 376992 pieces.

Let's do a thought experiment- let's put these balls in a huge lottery drum, which throws out only one ball with the combination indicated on this ball for each draw. It should not be forgotten that after each last drawing, the dropped ball with the combination indicated on it is thrown back into the same lottery machine. Thus, for the next draw, all combinations will be in place again, and when the lottery drum is launched, they will be mixed on an equal basis with everyone else.

If it is difficult to imagine the option with balls, then let's try to imagine a huge roulette wheel, where each cell for a ball represents a combination. There are 376,992 such cells, since such a lined wheel also cannot fit into the picture, for a general understanding, we will draw only a tiny part with combinations - I highlighted the initial and final ones.

Take a look at the drawing- the “wheel” is divided into equal cells (equiprobable combinations), and the ball (drawing generator) can fall into any hole (cell - index), no matter how we marked these cells (even with pictures). After the draw (spin), the wheel does not decrease - all cells remain in place.

• Note: once again I draw your attention - I am writing about a whole simple single combination. For each individual combination (cell), the meaning is completely lost, in any even, odd, sums, intervals between numbers, repetitions, consecutive numbers, and others - since the combination is a single whole and denotes a cell (index) in the full array, and their huge quantity.

We can trace only certain areas of the array (sectors, ranges, groups of numbers) for the next games, therefore, we will increase our chances for the main prize (in separate runs) by tens and even hundreds of times. It depends on which sector (array, range) we guess.

equiprobable distribution
played combinations - simple proof No. 2

Consider the example of 24 numbers (lottery 6 out of 45), chosen randomly.

Let's calculate the probability of complete and partial coincidence on the real history of circulations in a simplified way (a simple calculation, and quite accurate for a large number of circulations), then we use the special HYPERGEOMET function, which is present in Excel spreadsheets. Represents a statistical function that can be used to calculate the probability of a complete or partial match.

Loaded 2311 lottery draws 6-45.

1. One match showed in 128 draws
2311/128 = 1 to 18.1.
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 16.6.

2. Two matches showed in 472 draws
2311/472 = 1 to 4.9
HYPERGEOMET= 1 to 4.9

3. Three matches showed in 754 runs.
2311/754 = 1 to 3.1
HYPERGEOMET \u003d 1 to 3.02

4. Four matches showed in 659 runs.
2311/659 = 1 to 3.5
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 3.6

5. Five matches showed in 249 runs.
2311/249 = 1 to 9.3
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 9.12

6. Six matches showed in 37 runs.
2311/37 = 1 to 62.5
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 60.51

As you can see, the probability of complete and partial coincidence almost completely coincides with the calculated values. So the lottery generator gives out combinations equally likely. When generating or manually marking any markers, the values ​​will be slightly different, but they will be close to theoretical ones. The more draw history is loaded, the closer the result. Due to the fact that there are catastrophically few circulations in the archive, we use groups of numbers of sufficient length.

From the uniform (equiprobable) distribution, one more conclusion follows: it does not matter which numbers are included in the group of numbers - even, odd, the top of the playing field or the bottom, and so on. Only the number of numbers in the group is important, on which the probability directly depends. We look at the screenshot - markers in the amount of 18 numbers are marked - random, upper part, parity.

There are no significant differences in the intensity of matching 5 numbers.
In other words, the draw generator pays attention to any marked markers evenly, at least “draw” something on the playing field. Sometimes it is “advised” to play with the so-called “pieces” - this will not change anything in terms of the probability of coincidence - any “piece” will play with the same frequency as “not a figure” ...

Now we know for sure - any marked group of numbers, in equal numbers, has the same probability of matching. Why? Because it is made up of equally probable simple combinations. In this case, how do you even understand which group might be more likely to play in the upcoming games?

Strategic combination generators for number lotteries

When you realize that a single combination is equally likely,
then some people get completely confused - in relation to common statistics 🙂

For example, why "even-odd" plays in the "majority" in a certain proportion, or why "sum" plays in the middle range and more. It turns out that the combinations seem to be not equally probable? This question is easy to answer, precisely after the full realization that a single combination is equiprobable. So why, after all, combinations seem to “like to play” in certain proportions, ranges, amounts - if they are equally probable?

• Because we "allocate" arrays of equiprobable single combinations with this information. Here it is important to know how many combinations obtained in the selected sectors. Arrays of combinations, highlighted by statistical information - contain different amount equiprobable combinations, therefore, these arrays have different probability for a match.

Consider the example of statistics
even, odd numbers

• Let's try to understand one of the popular tips when choosing a combination:
  choose combinations that contain an equal number of even and odd numbers

Let's see why this happens. In the lottery, 5 out of 36 most common even-odd will look like this: 2 even - 3 odd, or 3 even - 2 odd. We count the number (even - odd) of all possible combinations in the lottery 5 out of 36

To better understand why a lottery machine or a drawing random number generator tries to throw out such combinations of numbers in combinations, let's turn for clarity to the roulette wheel, which is nothing more than an equiprobable random number generator, unless, of course, it is skewed

Distribute all combinations on the basis of even-odd together, and according to the table,
draw a pie chart - imagine that these are marked sectors on a roulette wheel

Add mentally the largest sectors that contain 124848 combinations together = 124848 pieces (2 even - 3 odd) + 124848 pieces (3 odd - 2 even) = 249696 combinations out of 376992 possible, or 66.23%, or the chance of these two sectors is 376992 / 249696 = 1 to 1.5 for each spin (draw) or approximately 33 numbers out of 36.

That is why with each test (roulette spin) of a lottery drum or a drawing generator, combinations from this sector will tend in most cases to play in a parity ratio like 2-3 or 3-2.

• In this example, plays not a single combination- a dedicated “huge sector” with combinations plays here, in other words, we marked about 33 numbers out of 36, naturally, almost always such a number of numbers will “hook” all the prize money!

Why parity in combinations like 2-3 or 3-2? Everything is explained by the costs of the decimal system, which encodes the whole combination. Each individual whole (full) combination simply denotes a cell of 376992 pieces. Recall the thought experiment with balls, on which the combination is indicated as a whole, or an example with a roulette wheel, where each combination simply indicates a cell, and is indivisible. And how we select an array of combinations does not matter. It's just convenient to follow these signs (even or odd) for a part of the array - the sector.

If we generate any random combinations for the same number of combinations (2469696 pieces), regardless of these proportions in general, then nothing will change in terms of the probability of matching the resulting array (sector) (1 to 1.5). Any equiprobable random combination generator will sort of follow this advice on its own (without any filters) − interestingly, no one specifically programs it like that, laying in it an instruction (algorithm), to issue exactly such combinations of numbers.

Don't believe? Check it out yourself!

1. Review your draw history - most odd/even combinations will be 2-3, 3-2 (5 out of 36) and 3-3 (6 out of 45).
2. Take any generator of random numbers, combinations - generate and write down the resulting combinations, then check.

Conclusion:

• Most likely, such advice is addressed to those who manually fill in tickets, without any software, even a simple random combination generator will follow this advice on its own.
• This advice is of little use to us, since the sector contains two-thirds of all combinations - not roulette, because we play in dozens, where the chance is 1 to 3.
• This advice is suitable for lotteries that are very rare, although it will not help much.
• It is more correct to try to guess the sectors 1-4, 4-1, and with fairly frequent draws 5-0, 0-5 (we are waiting for the average period)

This Friday, the jackpot of the game "Sportloto 6 out of 49" exceeded 1 million rubles, and this is one of the largest amounts in the history of Belarusian lotteries. the site talked to the organizers from the Sport-pari company and Minsk residents who claim a solid win.

“I saw the number of the circulation and the address of the terminal in a dream. Won"

- Better say: a jackpot of 500 thousand dollars! And then a million rubles is somehow not perceived, - complains about the consequences of the denomination Sergey, a middle-aged Minsker.

Today - however, as on other days of the week - he went to the Sports Betting point of sale at the railway station. I made a bet in "Sportloto 6 out of 49" and hopes to become the owner of a larger amount in return for 2 rubles.

- My most solid jackpot until this day is 5 million old rubles, - says Sergey. - I keep statistics in a separate notebook. According to my observations, the numbers 41 and 42, 31 and 32 fall out the least.

When filling out a coupon, someone chooses to “auto-bet”, that is, allows the computer to determine a set of random numbers. Someone writes the dates of birth: their own and loved ones.

- And one of the winners admitted to us that he saw the number of the draw and the address of the terminal where you need to fill out the coupon (in the Prostor store on Dzerzhinsky Street) in a dream. I decided to check the dream and won, - the head of the information support department of ZAO Sport-pari is surprised Irina Urbanovich.

Or another story: in Lida, a man made ten bets. In nine coupons he indicated the same numbers, and in the last one he decided to replace. He won 902 million with “old” money: one hundred million for nine coupons, and two for the one with a different number.

Although the draws of "Sportloto 6 out of 49" are held three times a week, no one has won the jackpot for the past three years. That's why it grew to such a size. For example, in another Sports Betting game, Sportloto 5 out of 36, the main prize has already been taken away several times. So the jackpot there is more modest - 176,300 rubles.

To become a winner in "Sportloto 6 out of 49", you need to guess from 3 to 6 numbers. If 3 numbers match, the winnings will be fixed: today it is 2 rubles 50 kopecks. In the drawing of September 23, there were 251 matches of 3 numbers (winning for each bet 2 rubles 50 kopecks) and 9 matches of 4 numbers (winning for each bet 1150 rubles 83 kopecks).

“I know such players who do not go to certain girls at points of sale”

The orange door of the Sports Betting Kiosk opens approximately every five minutes to let in a new jackpot candidate.

- I made a bet on tomorrow, I think, more is not needed yet, - he is cautious Inalina Gassieva. She used to teach Russian as a foreign language, but now she has retired. “See how the jackpot is accumulating, people want to win!” The figure for our country is huge, and if only I could have a small piece.

In this case, the pensioner would give part of the money to the orphanage and the animal shelter.

- And I would also buy a car for my brother, he lives far beyond Minsk, but works here. I would help a friend, she also helped me in her time. The rest is trifles, the woman thinks.

Makes a bet for Inalina Gassiyeva Viktor Pchelka:

“I am a builder, “Vasya the hard worker,” the man introduces himself. - How often do I go? Tuesday Thursday Saturday. I don’t take lottery tickets out of principle, it’s not serious. But coupons or sporting events are another matter: here I mark the numbers myself.

Viktor Pchelka somehow won 200 rubles - "in the days when the dollar was two thousand". He loves to win, but the process of the game also captivates: "Riding the adrenaline!"- speaks. He does not believe in omens categorically:

What difference does it make if I got up on my left foot or on my right? I know such players who do not go to certain girls at sales points: they say, she has a bad hand. I answer: wait, but if I place the numbers at the computer, should I change the monitor then? - the player throws up his hands.

“We used to win more often in Brest”

Yes, some customers consider each seller “happy”, agrees Maria Krechko-Mukhamedzhanova. She takes bets at the kiosk at the train station. The girl cannot test her own luck in the Sports Betting games: employees are forbidden to play. But at least she was lucky with tickets in the exams: she pulled out the one that she thought of. So Maria gives others the opportunity to make their dreams come true.

- Many players go every day, some - at the same time, like clockwork. For example, on the way home from work. But the principle “beginners are lucky” also works in our business: for example, I often see how in “Blitz” (a game that takes place online right at the point of sale once every five minutes. - Approx. ed.) Winnings are taken by people who simply came five minutes to wait for the train.

She played Blitz with us Olga Kuprienko, Sales Manager. I made an “autobet”, won 20 rubles. But she is not a newcomer - one of those who visits regularly.

- This summer, for example, I received 100 rubles for hockey in Sportprognoz. How did you spend? I made a bet again, - the girl laughs. - I would have won more, I would have known where to send it: repairs, cars ...

Sports Betting says that recently the winnings have been distributed evenly across the country. Previously, luck was concentrated in the Brest region. They cannot help with lucky numbers: the process of extracting prize balls from the lottery drum occurs automatically without human intervention, so no one has the opportunity to influence the results of the draw.

— All we know is that the jackpot is really big, someone will definitely get lucky.
