The Quina lottery results from contest 6665 were announced on Saturday evening, February 22, 2025, and they brought both anticipation and disappointment to players across Brazil. Although the estimated jackpot was R$ 8.5 million, no lucky individuals managed to match all five winning numbers, causing the prize to roll over to R$ 9.5 million for the next draw.
The draw took place at 8 PM local time at the Espaço da Sorte venue located in São Paulo. Lottery players had eagerly awaited the outcome, hoping to transform their financial destinies with the lottery's lucrative prize.
The specific numbers drawn were 26, 30, 35, 66, and 77. Notably, there were no winners for the top prize, which resulted from matching five numbers. The subsequent tiers, which include the second and third prizes, still managed to produce several winners:
- Four numbers (Quadra): 13 players successfully matched four numbers, earning R$ 35,859.79 each.
- Three numbers (Terno): A total of 3,307 players matched three numbers, resulting in winnings of R$ 134.25 each.
- Two numbers (Duque): Lastly, there were 101,535 winners who matched two numbers, with each receiving R$ 4.37.
The current prize pool of R$ 9.5 million will be up for grabs in the next contest, which is scheduled for February 24, 2025. This weekly lottery event occurs regularly six times, from Monday through Saturday, at 8 PM.
For those curious about participating, the Quina allows players to choose between 5 to 15 numbers from 80 available on the lottery ticket. The minimum entry fee stands at R$ 2.50 for five numbers, but costs vary depending on the number selected. This flexibility can impact the ticket price significantly; for example, selecting the maximum of 15 numbers could cost over R$ 7,500.
Participation can also take place via the online platform provided by Caixa Econômica Federal. This service aims to attract younger audiences by allowing ticket purchases around the clock without the need to visit physical lottery shops. To play, one must be at least 18 years old and hold a valid credit card.
Unlike traditional lottery methods, participants can opt for the 'Surpresinha' option, where the system auto-generates the numbers for them. There's also the option of 'Teimosinha' allowing the same numbers to be played across multiple draws, potentially increasing chances for winners across time.
The odds of winning the main prize with five selected numbers stand at around 1 in 24,040,016. For players choosing to maximize their chosen numbers to 15, the odds improve to approximately 1 in 8,005, albeit at a higher cost.
Winners have until 90 days after the draw date to claim their prizes. If unclaimed, the winnings are redistributed to the 'Fundo de Financiamento Estudantil' (Fies) for educational funding.
For those eager to check their results and claim their rewards, it's recommended to visit any local lottery outlet or the official Caixa Econômica Federal agency to facilitate the process.
Despite no grand prize winners this round, the excitement and participation remain high for avid Quina players, who look forward to the upcoming draw and the hope of changing their fortunes.
