It is also worth mentioning that this exciting game was withdrawn in 1998 for a period of two years, and then it returned under the pressure of players. As the statistics show, it is still very popular, despite this, that prize pools are lower than for example in traditional Lotto. Slightly smaller prize pools arise from the fact, that players pay a lower rate for individual bets, as well as due to a much higher probability winning which results from the number of balls and the drawn numbers. This does not mean at all, that the game is less exciting through this. On the contrary, while playing Mini Lotto you can win indeed a bit smaller awards, but much more often.
