The biggest wins are in the United States
Playing the numbers is not only popular in the United States, but also equally popular in other parts of the world. According to the North American Association of State and Provincial Lotteries, there is an impressive number of state-run lotteries all over the world: 100 in ither countries, 45 in the United States. The difference, however, consists in the prizes at stake.
Apparently, the American state offers the biggest prizes; so, it pays off to play the numbers on American soil. “Players in the United States will be happy to know that the top 10 jackpots of all time come from national American lottery games,” details Wighton. In 2018, a woman in South Carolina became a billionaire after hitting the jackpot with the lucky numbers.
On the other hand, the more players, the smaller the gains. If you’ve been wondering why the jackpot wins differ from one round to the other, the answer is simple: the jackpot is claimed by more winners and, thus divided among them. “As prizes are awarded for smaller combinations of lotto winning numbers, there will always be winners after every draw,” explains Wighton.
