As statistics show, it still enjoys great interest, despite the fact, that the prize pools are smaller than for example in Lotto. Smaller prize pools are due to the fact, that the stakes are smaller for placing a bet, 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 is less exciting. On the contrary, in Mini Lotto you can win smaller amounts but much more often.
