At the end of last year, Voronezh pensioner Natalya Vlasova won half a billion rubles in the lottery. Congratulations to the lucky winner in the media became excellent advertising for the lottery company. Under only one New Year's draw it collected over 2 billion rubles from the population. We decided to find out whether it is possible to win the lottery. And is it worth buying tickets in the hope of luck? In short, there is no point.
1. NO SUPERVISION OR CONTROL
The Stoloto company occupies more than 90% Russian market lotteries Monopolist. All the most famous draws go to the cash desk of this company. Her slogans are painfully simple: “They win with us” and “State lotteries.” But few people know that a private company operates under the state brand. According to the Kontur.Focus system, it is owned by entrepreneur Vahan Gevorkyan.
— People trust the state. They think it won’t deceive, but a private company takes advantage of it,” says video blogger Alexander Dvizhnov, whose video “Exposing Stoloto is a state-scale scam” has received 1.5 million views on YouTube.
There is no deception here. As the Ministry of Finance explained, according to the Law “On Lotteries”, only state lotteries can be held in Russia. Stoloto is a distributor. And 5% of the proceeds of all lotteries it conducts actually goes to finance sports, that is, for state purposes. But this is only 5%. And for some reason these pennies do not go directly to the budget, but to private companies (more on this in the next part of our investigation).
— The Ministry of Finance issues licenses for this type of activity. But control is weak. There are still establishments in Russia that pretend to be lottery clubs. There are monitors with screens hanging there, cherries and monkeys jumping on them. These are the same ones slot machines which were banned many years ago, says Pavel Sychev, a member of the council under the Chairman of the Federation Council for interaction with civil society institutions.
The Stoloto company did not respond to repeated requests.
2. CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The lottery business operates the same way all over the world. The company collects 100 rubles from the population. Of these, 50 rubles. goes to winnings, and the remaining 50 rubles. - to the organizer's box office. From this money he covers running costs(advertising, office and studio rent, employee salaries, taxes, etc.) and receives net profit.
Lottery (as well as financial pyramid, by the way) you need to give part of the profits to the participants. Otherwise they won't play. According to the official financial statements for 2016, TH Stoloto received revenue in the amount of 10 billion rubles, and net profit - 560 million rubles. But what share of the remaining more than 9 billion rubles. spent on the maintenance of the structure itself is unknown.
At the same time, it is impossible to check how much money is given to the winners. There are a lot of scandals. A couple of years ago, a resident of the Trans-Baikal Territory, Evgeny Lapyrev, was denied payment of winnings of almost 6 million rubles. The company said this was a “technical error.” Lapyrev appealed to the Investigative Committee and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but did not get the truth.
— In Russia, in fact, only one company is engaged in lotteries. She can do anything. The business is opaque,” says Igor Kolpakov, creator of the Lohotrona.net portal. — Large companies there should be more in the lottery business. Then there will be competition. And there are fewer incentives to cheat.
3. THE THEORY OF BIG NUMBERS VS BIG MONEY
Talk to any mathematician. Playing the lottery is a losing strategy. This is proven by the experience of avid players. Conventionally: you spent 100 thousand rubles on tickets, but won a total of no more than 50 thousand rubles. Large number theory is rarely wrong.
In fact, the real percentage is even lower. Not all operators honestly allow the agreed percentage of the collected money to be used for winnings. And without big winnings, it is impossible to recoup many years of “investment” in lottery tickets. The chance of winning the jackpot is one in a million.
— I would advise you not to look for dashing luck in lottery clubs. And spend the money on something useful, says Pavel Sychev.
AND AT THIS TIME
Where's half a billion?
Winnings of 506 million rubles. Natalia Vlasova from the village of Panino Voronezh region Stoloto promised to pay after New Year's holidays. But whether the money was paid and how much is unknown. According to her daughter, some money began to arrive. But she didn’t say how much. The Stoloto company itself did not answer the question about paying Vlasova’s winnings. All this looks strange: if the lottery organizer fulfills its obligations, then why hide it? By the way, the day before there was another lucky one - from Nizhny Novgorod— for the first time this year, he hit the jackpot in “6 out of 45” for 267.5 million rubles. "
BY THE WAY
Online sweepstakes are thimbles
It is not clear who authorized Stoloto to conduct online lotteries (there is no mention of this in the law), but on their website you can participate in virtual draws. They pass almost every five minutes. The generator determines the winnings random numbers.
— If the process occurs only in electronic format, rely on big winnings and the organizers' honesty is not worth it. It’s reminiscent of thimble games from the 90s,” says Pavel Sychev. — We have too sad experience. If the electronic machine is programmed by the state controller, that’s one thing. And if private company— only the owner wins.
REFERENCE:
The lottery operator Stoloto owns more than 90% of the market. Namely: lotteries “Gosloto 7 out of 49”, “Gosloto 6 out of 45”, “Gosloto 5 out of 36”, “Top-3”, “Rapido”, “12/24”, “KENO-Sportloto”, “Prikup” , “Duel”, “Sportloto 6 of 49”, “ Russian lotto", "Housing Lottery", " golden horseshoe", "6 out of 36", "Gosloto 4 out of 20".
ANECDOTE ON THE TOPIC
A man bought a dead donkey for 1 ruble and played it in the lottery. I sold 200 tickets for a ruble and determined the winner. And he presented: they say, it’s a dead donkey...
“Then let me give you back the money for the ticket,” the man was not taken aback.
That's what they agreed on.
Moral: the guy made a lot of money out of the blue. Everyone is happy, even the one who won the dead donkey. And those who were deceived did not even know about the deception. They just thought they were unlucky.

The cost of such a choice will be higher. What is the benefit? If you guess at least 2 numbers in such a bet, you will win not 40 rubles, but 4 times more, 160 rubles. And if you guess 5 numbers at once, 20,000 rubles will be added to your super prize! So, a spread bet not only increases your chances of guessing the entire winning combination, it also increases the amount of any winnings you make.
How are winnings calculated on spread bets?
The easiest way is to look at the example of 2 guessed numbers.
Suppose you marked 6 numbers on the playing field: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. From them you can make 6 different combinations of 5 numbers. If two numbers match your combination in the draw - for example, 2 and 3, then they will appear in 4 combinations at once, and for each of them you will be awarded winnings.

Participation in distribution draws increases your chances of winning
A distribution draw is a draw in which the accumulated sum of the super prize is divided among all the winners of the draw. The frequency of such draws is regulated by the Law “On Lotteries,” which requires them to be held at least once a year if no one wins a super prize during the entire year. By decision of the lottery organizer, distribution draws may be held more frequently.

Draw results statistics ― interesting tool which will help you win more often
When you want to justify the choice of numbers with facts and not with feelings, use circulation statistics. How to get it? Write down the winning combinations of each draw in a notebook (or save it in a separate file). Experienced lottery fans keep track of the number of times each number appears in a draw and keep statistics on the number of even and odd, “hot” and “cold” numbers. In addition, there are interesting statistics on counting runs in which balls appear in succession or numbers that for some reason often appear in pairs.
On the website, you can use automated statistics for each game on the pages of the circulation archives (for example, statistics for “Gosloto “5 out of 36”). But the most interesting things about statistics can be found in the “Numbers” section of your personal account! There are also numbers that were brought to you personally more money, and the combination that brought maximum win in the history of the game, and the ability to make a bet from the numbers you liked in different sections personal and general statistics.
A multiplier is an option that allows you to increase your winnings several times over.
The ability to use the multiplier exists in the daily games "" and "". The multiplier number is the number of identical bets that will be accepted per draw, and the number of identical fixed winnings that you will receive in case of the desired match. The value of the bet increases accordingly. For example, in “Keno-Sportloto” you can increase the amount of potential winnings by 10 times, and in “Top-3” - by 100 times.
In the history of the KENO-Sportloto game, the largest win was recorded - 550,000 rubles. The participant managed to win this amount using a multiplier of 10 and a combination of 10 numbers - 9 numbers matched. And if he had guessed all 10 numbers, he would have won 10,000,000 rubles!
The maximum winnings in the “Top 3” without using a multiplier is 5,000 rubles. With a multiplier you can grow it up to 500,000 rubles! And by combining a not very large multiplier with the same combinations in several receipts, you can win even more. This happened in the 1540th draw, where two participants made more than 10 bets with a multiplier of 10, each of which included a combination of 1, 5, 4. As a result, each of them!
So if you feel confident in your numbers, give them 10 or even 100 times the odds.
For one marketing experiment, I needed to win money in the lottery. Not just to play, but to win. And I managed to do it on the 1st try. It's real to win the lottery...
Before May 6th, I had not played the lottery except perhaps on a few occasions. But when it happened and with what result, I can’t even remember. I recently became acquainted with the topic of lotteries, studying random number generators and their implementation in different languages programming.
Then I decided to conduct a small experiment in the field of Internet marketing, and for this I needed to win something in the lottery.
Is it possible to win money in the Russian lottery?
He approached the matter thoroughly, remembered combinatorics, looked at the calculations of the chances of winning the lottery. I realized that winning some amount in the lottery is quite possible.
For example, from calculations it turns out that the return on funds for the Gosloto 5 out of 36 lottery is approximately a third. And the probability minimum winnings 1 to 8. These patterns work for “large numbers”. Therefore, I decided to immediately buy a pack of 10 tickets with a reserve. I used the Stoloto website for this purpose.
I filled out the tickets using a random number generator for different lotteries with uniform distribution.
I didn’t use any tricky options for filling in by type only even or odd.
After the drawing, it turned out that 1 ticket won, this is quite consistent with the calculated probability of 1 in 8. But the winning amount is quite remarkable - 800 rubles. And I spent exactly 800 rubles to buy 10 tickets. It turned out that I played almost without losses. The math went a little wrong :-).
These are the lucky numbers.
For example, Qiwi money. To do this, you needed to send your passport data and TIN.
The withdrawal occurs through payment system WalletOne with a commission of 2.9%.
There was some hiccup in the operation of the output form, but in general everything went without problems. The amount minus the commission was received within a few minutes.
A winning of 800 rubles was received. It's possible to win the lottery, but is it possible to make money from it?
Chance to win money in the lottery
I’ll show you how to calculate the probability of winning the lottery using an example. Gosloto 5 of 36. For 5 numbers you get an accumulating super prize. For 4 days and beyond, fixed amounts.
- 4 numbers - 8,000 rubles
- 3 numbers - 800 rubles
- 2 numbers - 80 rubles
The probability of matching 5 out of 36 numbers in Gosloto and winning the jackpot is 1:376,992. The general formula is simple. The probability that one number from our 5 will appear is 5/36. Next, for the 4th number - 4/35, 3 numbers - 3/34, 2nd numbers - 2/33, 1st number - 1/32. Next, these probabilities need to be multiplied among themselves, since the events of balls falling out are independent: (5*4*3*2*1)/(36*35*34*33*32) = 1/(9*7*17*11* 32) = 1/376,992. The general formula for the number of combinations is C(5,36) = 36!/(5!*(36-5)!) = 376,992.
Next, for 4 numbers out of 5 you need a probability the right choice 5 numbers multiplied by a number possible options guess correctly 4 numbers out of 5, this is 5 options multiplied by 31 or 155. We get (1/376,992)*155 = 1/2,432.
General formula C(n,m)*C(m-n,x-m), where n is the number of numbers to win, m is the number of numbers available for selection, x is total number numbers. According to the formula, for 3 numbers it is 5*31*30*(1/376,992) or 1/81, for 2 numbers it is 5*31*30*29*(1/376,992) or 1/8.
- jackpot (5 numbers) – 1:376,992
- 4 numbers - 1:2 432 (155/376 992)
- 3 numbers - 1:81 (4,650/376,992)
- 2 numbers - 1:8 (134,850/376,992)
Thus, it turns out that approximately every 8th ticket is a winner.
Next, we will calculate the average percentage of return on investments in the 5 out of 36 lottery, taking into account the probabilities of winning. Let's assume we bought 2,432 tickets (for this moment ticket costs 80 rubles). It turns out we spent 194,560 rubles. From the calculations above, we will get on average 1 lucky four, 30 threes and 300 twos. Multiply by the amount of possible winnings (1*8,000 + 30*800 + 300*80) = 56,000 rubles.
The return percentage is approximately 28.78% (56,000/194,560 = 0.2878).
Let's look at the statistics of circulation No. 6597. 5644 tickets were sold at 80 rubles, a total of 451,200 rubles. The amount of payments is 197,920 rubles.
- 5 numbers - 0
- 4 numbers - 3 or 24,000 rubles
- 3 numbers - 125 or 100,000 rubles
- 2 numbers - 924 or 73,920 rubles
In this draw, the actual probability of guessing 4 numbers was 3/5644 or approximately 1/1881, 3 numbers - 1/45, 2 numbers - 1/6. The return rate was approximately 43.87%. Discrepancies with theory can be explained by the fact that the mathematics described above works on “large numbers”, it is necessary to consider larger number circulations. Plus, when calculating the percentage of returns, the probability of winning the jackpot was omitted, but it is still not zero: 1/376,992 - this is approximately 0.00002653%.
Also, from the calculations presented above, it is clear why I was lucky to win 800 rubles, in the draw there was a very high probability of guessing the 3rd number 1:45 instead of 1:81, probably the organizers' lottery RNG went haywire :-).
Is it possible to earn money by playing the lottery online?
If you play, there is a chance, but it is very small. It’s not for nothing that this article was published in the financial adventures section. You also need to take into account the costs of commissions for withdrawing and depositing money into the system, as well as the need to pay a 13% tax on winnings.
And if you organize your own lottery, your chances of making money greatly increase. It is important to carefully allocate revenue between marketing, winnings, costs and profits. You also need to use a high-quality random number generator.
It’s just difficult to promote the lottery so that your number of participants grows, and as a result, revenue and profit. Above, we calculated the refund for players to be 28.78%, which means that the revenue of the game organizers is 71.22% of the circulation turnover. With a large number of sold lottery tickets Quite decent sums accumulate. Even taking into account the fact that half of this amount usually goes to the super prize fund, which no one wins for months.
Lottery is one of the most popular gambling, in which it is possible to win a large sum money and expensive clothing prizes. The conduct of lotteries in Russia is regulated at the legislative level, so participants can count on the honesty of accredited organizers.
Below you will find tips on choosing the type of lottery, ways to increase your chances of winning, a list of popular Russian lotteries, as well as a ranking of the biggest winnings.
Which type of lottery is better to choose?
Lotteries may differ in how they are conducted. Based on this feature, there are two types:
- Draw lottery- the prize fund is drawn between all participants, and the game is played at a time after the sale of lottery tickets for a certain date and time. According to Russian legislation, during the drawing, only one piece of equipment is allowed to be used to determine the winning combination of numbers or symbols - in order to avoid fraud.
- No-draw lottery(instant) - information for determining winnings is included in tickets at the time of their creation. You can find out the result immediately after purchasing a game card by erasing the protective coating under which the hidden symbols are located. Their combination determines the absence or presence of winnings, as well as its size.
When choosing a type, you should consider some features:
- IN draw lotteries often the prize fund is larger. As a rule, the participant has the opportunity to independently choose the combination that, in his opinion, will be winning. In this case, you will have to wait for the drawing to take place.
- In non-draw lotteries, the winnings are smaller, but, according to statistics, people win them more often. Another advantage is that the result can be found out instantly.
Which lottery is the fairest in Russia?
