The Mega-Sena lottery, organized by Caixa Econômica Federal, held its 2834th contest on the evening of February 27, 2025, at the Espaço Loterias Caixa located on Avenida Paulista, São Paulo. The drawing revealed the numbers: 05, 08, 11, 15, 39, and 47. Unfortunately, no one managed to correctly guess all six numbers, resulting in the jackpot rolling over to the next contest, which will have an exciting estimated prize of R$ 42 million.
The drawing took place at 8 PM (Brasília time) and was streamed live, giving participants the chance to witness the event directly. According to G1, "Ninguém acertou as seis dezenas sorteadas hoje no concurso 2834 da Mega-Sena. O que aconteceu: Os números sorteados foram 05-08-11-15-39-47." This means the anticipation continues for participants eager to win big during the next draw.
While none achieved the grand prize, 37 tickets were fortunate enough to match five of the numbers drawn, allowing these winners to claim R$ 40,597.32 each. On the other hand, 2,803 lucky participants matched four numbers and will receive R$ 765.55 each, ensuring some level of winning excitement even when the jackpot isn't claimed.
Looking forward to the next Mega-Sena contest, scheduled for March 1, 2025, potential players can register their bets until 7 PM on the day of the draw. This next opportunity will offer players another chance at becoming millionaires. The estimated prize already stirs excitement as it awaits the next lucky ticket holder.
The cost to enter the Mega-Sena remains accessible, with the minimum bet starting at R$ 5 for selecting six numbers from the available pool of 60. Players can also increase their selections, which raises the potential costs per ticket but simultaneously enhances chances of landing both small and substantial winnings, depending on how many numbers they wish to choose.
According to E-Investidor, "Os participantes puderam registrar suas apostas até 19h no dia do sorteio, adquirindo um bilhete em uma unidade lotérica, no site ou aplicativo das Loterias Caixa." This highlights the various methods for participation, from traditional lottery outlets to more modern online options.
The probabilities of hitting the jackpot are slim; each ticket has approximately 1 chance out of 50,063,860 to win the grand prize—certainly not the best odds for aspiring millionaires. Yet the allure of substantial secondary prizes and the excitement of hopeful anticipation keep thousands participating week after week.
