When it comes to the countries with the most developed gambling industry in the world, the United Kingdom is definitely among the top.
In the UK, gambling is legal. A series of top sports such as the Premier League, boxing, rugby, Wimbledon Tennis Championships, etc. are all hard-hit areas for gambling. Even who will come to power in the British general election can become a gambling project for gambling companies.
The gambling nature of the British is rare in the world. According to relevant statistics, British citizens over the age of sixteen account for 68% of the country's total population. However, almost all of these people have had the experience of gambling in a year, which means that everyone is a gambler.
In the UK, the lottery industry is also extremely developed. Almost all citizens over the age of 16 have bought lottery tickets. Among them, Lotto is the most popular lottery in the UK.
The UK lottery was launched on November 19, 1994 by the then Major government, with the aim of raising funds for public welfare and reducing the tax burden on the government. The price of a ticket used to be £1, but it was changed to £2 from October 3, 2013.
When lottery players buy lottery tickets, they have to choose 6 different basic numbers from the natural numbers 1-59, and then choose an additional number.
The lottery is drawn every Wednesday and Saturday. After the lottery draw, lottery players compare the numbers on their lottery tickets with the set of numbers. The probability of matching 2 numbers is 1/10.3, and the prize is a lottery ticket (2 pounds); the probability of matching 3 numbers is 1/97, and the prize is 25 pounds.
If you match 4-6 numbers, the prize money is not fixed, but will be distributed according to the proportion of lottery sales. First, 17.82% of the lottery sales will be used as the prize pool for lottery players who match 4-6 numbers. After that, 12.9% of the prize money in the prize pool will be awarded to lottery players who match 4 numbers, and the chance of winning this prize is 1/2180; then 2% of the prize money in the prize pool will be awarded to lottery players who match 5 numbers, and the chance of winning this prize is 1/144,415; then 1.9% of the prize money in the prize pool will be awarded to lottery players who match 5 numbers + additional numbers, and the chance of winning this prize is 1/7,509,579; finally, 83.2% of the prize money in the prize pool will be awarded to lottery players who match 6 numbers, which is the first prize, and the chance of winning this prize is 1/45,057,474.
For example, if the total sales of this lottery issue is 100 million pounds, then 17.82% of it, or 17.82 million pounds, is the prize pool for lottery tickets matching 4-6 numbers, and the first prize is 83.2% of 17.82 million pounds, which is 14.82 million pounds!
The first prize of the lottery is very attractive. In fact, no matter what kind of lottery, the first prize is very attractive, isn't it the case with China's double-color ball and seven-color lottery?
If the first prize does not appear in this issue, the prize money will be accumulated to the next issue.
And yesterday, the Lotto jackpot had not been drawn for 12 consecutive draws, and the first prize in the prize pool has accumulated to more than 18 million pounds, which is undoubtedly an extremely tempting number.
Whoever can win the first prize in the 13th issue will immediately become a multi-millionaire!
There was indeed a lucky person who won the first prize of this issue last night. The first prize of more than 18 million pounds will fall on that lucky person's head.
After the lottery was announced last night, Yang Jing envied that guy and felt sorry that he was not the lucky one.
If it were in normal time and space, Yang Jing would not have any other thoughts except envy of that lucky guy.
But today is different, because Yang Jing traveled back to the day of the lottery draw, and he still remembered the first prize number of this lottery!
Yang Jing looked at the lottery window, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't excited. As long as he bought a ticket according to the number drawn last night, then after the lottery draw tonight, there would be two lucky people in the UK, and he would be one of them!
Under such circumstances, there is absolutely no way Yang Jing would not buy it!
How did the Chinese proverb come about? Yes, if you don't take what God gives you, you will suffer the consequences!
If you don’t take advantage of such a good opportunity, you would be letting down the heavens above, the earth below, and the air in between!
Moreover, I spent so much effort to travel back to the previous day, but I could only stay in this time and space for more than an hour, and I couldn't even do anything big. It was really a pity.
Now, with the emergence of this lottery station, it can at least make up for our little heart, right?
Yang Jing almost burst out laughing. However, he still suppressed the urge to laugh, and without saying anything, he quickly ran to the lottery window, took out two pounds from his wallet, and directly said the six numbers that he had once envied, and then he quickly got a lottery ticket.
After carefully putting the lottery ticket into his wallet, Yang Jing left there contentedly and quickly walked to a deserted corner outside Shuanghe Shopping Center.
After opening the interface of the Holy Ring and discovering that the energy could only support him staying in this space and time for ten minutes at most, Yang Jing nodded with satisfaction. He stretched out his hand and lightly tapped the "Return" button. The next moment, Yang Jing found himself in his rental house.
Without taking the time to feel the experience of time travel, Yang Jing first took out his wallet. Seeing that the lottery ticket he had just bought was still lying quietly in the compartment of the wallet, Yang Jing laughed out loud with satisfaction.
After carefully putting his wallet away, Yang Jing lay down on the bed and began to think about the experience he gained from this time-travelling journey.
