On December 21, 2024, the latest draw of the Quina lottery, Concurso 6613, took place at the Espaço da Sorte in São Paulo, but luck was not on the side of players vying for the R$ 600,000 prize. No one managed to guess all five winning numbers drawn: 20, 25, 32, 43, and 57. Without any winners for the top prize, excitement builds for the next draw, which is expected to feature an estimated payout of R$ 1.6 million.
Despite the absence of jackpot winners, the event still brought joy to many. A total of 109 players managed to match four out of the five numbers drawn, with each of these winners receiving R$ 3,056.46. The distribution of success was noted to heavily favor the São Paulo region, where 30 of the winning four-number tickets were purchased.
Adding to the excitement of the evening, 3,466 players earned R$ 91.54 each for correctly picking three numbers, and another 82,252 participants won R$ 3.85 by matching two numbers. Although the grand prize went unclaimed this time, these smaller wins ensured many players left the event with smiles on their faces.
The Quina lottery, operated by Caixa Econômica Federal since 1994, provides multiple opportunities for players to engage with various prize tiers. For those seeking to try their luck, the ticket price for selecting five numbers is R$ 2.50, making it accessible for many. Drawing occurs six days per week from Monday to Saturday, typically at 8 PM, with ample opportunities for players to enter through physical lottery locations or online.
Players participating can select between five and fifteen numbers from the pool of 80 available. The odds of winning the main prize are challenging, with the probability set at 1 in 24,040,016 for those picking five numbers. For those feeling particularly lucky, the maximum option allows for selections of up to fifteen numbers, enhancing their chances but also increasing the cost of the ticket. Those wanting to keep the same numbers for several draws can opt for the 'Teimosinha' option, which allows repeated entries across up to 24 consecutive contests.
The absence of jackpot winners has resulted in the next round accumulating excitement, with expectations for the next draw on December 23, 2024, now set at R$ 1.6 million. Players can expect to make their bets until 7 PM on the day of the draw.
For players curious about claiming their winnings, the process differs based on the amount won. Prizes under R$ 2,259.20 can be claimed at lottery locations or Caixa branches with proper identification, whereas larger sums are processed differently.
With anticipation mounting for the next draw, many players are already devising strategies and picking their lucky numbers. Will the next draw bring forth someone who can break the dry spell and claim the substantial prize? Only time will tell.
