In graphical form maps Mini Lotto - formerly Express Lotek 11.2024

History Mini Lotto is over four decades - the first draw was held in March 1976. At that time the game was known as Express Lotek, and under this name it ran until 2009. Despite the name change the rules did not change, and to this day players regularly try to win the prize for the five drawn from 42 numbers. It should also be mentioned, that this exciting game was suspended in 1998 for two years, but later returned under player pressure. As statistics show, it is still very popular, despite the fact, that the prize pools are smaller than for example in traditional Lotto. Smaller winnings are due to the fact, that players pay a smaller stake for single bets, 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.
