In Russia, only 1-2% of the population participate in lotteries, for comparison: the share of players in France is 70% of the total population of the country, the USA - 63%. Such a small percentage of players in Russia is explained by the distrust of Russians in lotteries. But among these percentages there are also winners who hit large jackpots.

Jack Whittaker was a prosperous businessman, family man, and philanthropist until he hit the big jackpot in 2002. Whittaker is addicted to alcohol gambling abandoned his family. Within a few years, his entire fortune was spent, and the business collapsed.



Jackpots in world lotteries

But even the largest lottery winnings in Russia cannot be compared with the main prizes in the lotteries of the world. American lotteries are big fans of lotteries, because the largest jackpots are played on American lotteries, such as Powerball and Mega Millions. So, the largest lottery winnings in the world belong to:

1. On August 24, 2017, an American won over $758 million in the Powerball lottery. This is the most big win this lottery and the lotteries of the world, which fell on one ticket. Interesting feature lotteries in that the prize can be received in installments over 29 years or taken immediately, but then the amount of the winnings will be significantly less (about 2 times).

How to win the lottery?

The question of how to win the lottery arises for all players. There is no definite way to win. Each winner has his own secret of success, but not everyone is ready to share it. Most argue that this is just luck and luck, others follow certain rules:

• They play with an expanded bet, i.e. choose more numbers than is possible in a normal bet. Of course, the expanded rate provides for more investments, but the chance of winning increases.
• They participate regularly in lotteries and use the same combination all the time. They are waiting for the selected combination to bring the long-awaited prize.
• They play with friends, the so-called lottery syndicate. In this case, a group of people buys as many tickets of one lottery as possible, and if they win, they divide everything in half.
• Various mathematical formulas are used.

There are those who believe in happy Days, numbers, clothes, talismans. They buy tickets, choose numbers that are significant for themselves on the ticket, use various conspiracies to win.



The statistics of large lottery wins in Russia suggests that every year the number of their participants is growing, and so are the winnings. The probability of hitting the jackpot is negligible and depends on the specific lottery. For example, the opportunity to win in the Gosloto 5 out of 36 lottery is approximately 1 to 367 thousand, in the Gosloto 6 out of 45 lottery - 1 to 8 million, in the Russian Lotto - 1 to 7 million.
