Although the name changed the rules did not change, and to this day interested players regularly try to win the prize for the five drawn from 42 numbers. It should also be mentioned, that the game Mini Lotto was suspended in 1998 for two years, but later returned under player pressure. As it turns out, it is still very popular, despite the fact, that the highest prizes are smaller than for example in Lotto. Smaller prize pools are due to the fact, that players pay a smaller stake for one bet, and due to the higher probability of winning which results from the number of balls and the drawn numbers. What does not mean at all, that the game itself is less exciting. On the contrary, in Mini Lotto you win smaller amounts but much more often.
