Two bets placed in Greater Recife won significant prizes by matching five of the six numbers in the Mega-Sena contest 3,020. The tickets were registered in Recife and Jaboatão dos Guararapes, resulting in winnings of R$53,314.28 and R$26,657.13, respectively. The difference in values is due to the number of numbers bet: while the winner from Jaboatão played with six numbers, the one from Recife increased his chances by betting seven, which, although it increases the cost of the bet, also increases the prize pool in case of correct guesses.
The numbers drawn on Thursday night (18) were 06, 09, 17, 27, 29 and 45. As there was no winner for the main prize of six dozen, the amount accumulated for the next draw, scheduled for Saturday (20), reaching an estimated R$42 million.
In addition to the hits on the corner, Pernambuco recorded 83 winners in the court modality. A simple bet, containing six numbers, guaranteed R$600.94. Notably, a jackpot organized in Recife obtained a prize of R$3,605.58, demonstrating that collective bets can also yield good returns.
