Winning is all that matters in Mittwochslotto and Samstagslotto
by Larry Taggart Article writerPlaying lottery is fun because you can suddenly become a millionaire
by spending peanuts in comparison. Mittwochslotto and Samstagslotto are
the most popular lottery games in Germany and there are millions who buy
tickets and wait for the chance to win the jackpot. 6 out of 49 lotto
is a traditional lottery game in Germany and it has been going on for
more than 60 years and counting. Going by the ever-increasing popularity
of this game, there is no chance that it will ever lose its sheen.
Playing 6 out of 49
As
the name suggests, this game is all about getting 6 numbers (and a
super number) right from the 49 available. If you manage to do this, the
jackpot is yours. It is obvious that it is a completely luck-based game
and the odds of you cracking the jackpot is 1:140 million.
But
this game is not about the jackpot only. Every Wednesday and Saturday,
the game is played where 6 balls and a super number ball are drawn from
the 49 available balls. Once a ball is drawn, it is not put back into
the bowl. There are 9 winning categories possible in this game and if
you are lucky enough, you can crack one of them. When that happens, you
can take home a handsome amount.
How to play?
To play this
game, you need to buy a ticket online or from a kiosk. The kiosks are
there in all the 16 federal regions of Germany. Each ticket costs €1 and
depending on whether you buy online or from a kiosk, there is a small
processing fee that you need to pay. There is no limit to the number of
tickets you can purchase to play this lottery game.
Once you have
your ticket, you need to mark 6 numbers on it. There is also the option
of ticking the super number that is displayed on each ticket. After you
have done this and made your submission, you wait for the game to be
played and hope for the best. There is nothing more that you need to
know about this game.
Should you play on Wednesday or Saturday?
This decision is completely yours. There are players of the game who buy their tickets for every game.
Playing
on Wednesday is considered better by some players. Because it is the
middle of the week, there are typically lesser number of contestants.
And this increases your odds of winning. The other advantage of playing
on Wednesday is that you could have your shot at a higher jackpot
amount. If there was no jackpot on the previous Saturday (with more
number of entries), the amount gets transferred to the Wednesday
jackpot. And because there are lesser number of players on Wednesday,
your odds to hit the jackpot is better.
Saturday being the
weekend, the game is more of a festival than a lottery. There are
millions of players who buy their tickets for the Saturday game. It is
best to go to a pub where you can keep a tab on the winning numbers
while enjoying your favourite team playing the Bundesliga. The fun you
can have is just immense.
Initially, there were some differences
between Mittwochslotto and Samstagslotto where the former had 8 winning
categories. But this difference has been long sorted out and these days,
the playing conditions are uniform between the two game days. Hence,
whether you want to play the lotto on Wednesday or Saturday is
completely up to you.
Playing responsibly
Lotto can be
extremely addictive given the low amount of investment involved. This
cause addiction among many players. The psyche of the players is like in
any game of chance. People go out of their way to buy their tickets in
the hope of hitting the jackpot. So, if there is anything that you need
to worry about when playing this game, it should be about not getting
addicted.
Playing 6 out of 49 in Germany is something you are
bound to enjoy. The adrenalin rush, the smiles on the winners and the
look of dismay on the losers is a great sight to see. Once you start
playing this game, you simply fall in love.
Whether you play Mittwochslotto or Samstagslotto, there is no end to the fun you can have.
