As statistics show, 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 the stakes are smaller for single bets, and due to the higher probability of winning which results from the drawn numbers and the number of balls. 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.
