Rules for playing home lotto. What can you win?

Russian Lotto is one of the most exciting games that can be played by 2 or more people. Both adults and children enjoy playing it, and simple rules allow you to involve even kids in this entertainment. Lotto is ideal for a family evening, as it gives all players a lot of positive emotions.

The word "lotto" appears to be of French origin ("loto") or Italian origin ("lotto"). It combines gambling using special cards with numbers printed on them (usually rows and columns).

The rules of the game “Russian Lotto” are simple and clear. You can play lotto at home or any other place, the main thing is that you have a suitable “company”.

There are several types of rules for the Russian Lotto game:

Before the start of the game, the participants agree on which Russian Lotto game they will play.

1. Simple LOTTO- The one who is the first to cover all the numbers on one of his cards wins. He takes the bank. Typically, when playing simple LOTTO, each player receives three cards.

2. Short LOTTO- The first one to cover all the numbers in any one line wins. Typically, when playing short LOTTO, each player receives one card.

When one of the players fills any top line, the rest double their bets into the pot;

When one of the players fills any middle row, he takes half of the pot;

When one of the players fills out any bottom line, he is declared the winner and takes the entire bank.

In a three-on-three game, it is possible to create unequal conditions between players who have made unequal contributions to the bank. Any player can double or even triple his contribution and receive not one, but, accordingly, two or three cards. This is possible because it is considered that a “card is played” and each card has equal rights and responsibilities, regardless of how many cards the player has.

At the beginning of the game, the leader is chosen, he may receive cards and participate in the game on an equal basis with others, or he may not receive them, this is determined by an agreement between the players.

The presenter blindly takes one barrel from the bag at a time, after which he announces its number. There is a special terminology for announcing numbers in LOTTO:

Lotto rules

An ancient Russian game - lotto - the rules of which are well known to everyone, began its march across Russian soil in the 20th century and is still going on, proudly bearing the title of the only officially permitted gambling game during the Soviet era.
Many of us are familiar with the exciting feelings of courage and joy when you sit over your treasured cards, hoping for luck and trying to win the lotto, the rules of which, in fact, resemble a regular lottery.

What is included in the set that brings so much joy? Lotto contains the following elements: wooden or plastic barrels, 90 pieces, numbers on which are drawn on both sides of the end cuts; 24 game cards, each of which is a checkered field with numbers written in some cells; plastic, leatherette or cardboard chips, popularly called “caps” - there are usually at least 170 of them; a bag for storing gaming kegs - it must be opaque so that the “screamer” cannot see which keg with which number he takes, thereby unwittingly or deliberately playing along with one of the players; a box or chest for storing lotto and rules, which, in principle, are not mandatory, because everyone already knows them!

The lotto rules are extremely simple: the player who is the first to cover a certain number of numbers on their cards wins. But nevertheless, let’s take a closer look at the essence of the game. To start the game, you need to choose a leader who will “pull” the barrels from the bag and “shout”, that is, announce the numbers. The presenter can not only be an outside “observer” and announce the results, but also take a direct part in the game. According to the lotto rules, players receive their number cards and “cap” chips, throw buttons or coins onto the line - if the game is “for fun”, however, the game can simply be “for the winner”, or maybe for real money.

The presenter, without looking, pulls a keg out of the bag and announces its number, and the participants in the game check their cards for such a number and, if there is one, cover it with a chip. If the presenter who is taking part in the game has more than one announced numbers, then he also covers the others with chips.
In the Russian Lotto game, the rules provide for several options: simple lotto, short lotto, three-by-three lotto.
In a simple lotto, the rules are as follows: players receive three cards and lay them out in front of them on the table. The game follows the above rules. The winner is the player who is the first to cover all the numbers on one of his cards. If a player closes one line of the card, he should warn other players with the word “apartment”.

A short lotto, the rules of which are extremely simple: players are given only one card, and to win it is enough to cover all the numbers on one line.

The “three for three” option is considered the most gambling, since cards are redeemed for a certain fee, even if not with real values. The game then proceeds in the same order as regular lotto. The three-on-three rules state that if one player covers all the numbers on the top line, then the remaining players double their bets. If the middle line of the card is filled in first, then the player takes a third of the total bet on the line. And the winner of the game is the player who is the first to close the bottom line of his card.

The word "lotto" appears to be of French origin ("loto") or Italian origin ("lotto"). It combines gambling using special cards with numbers printed on them (usually rows and columns).

Composition of the Russian Lotto game

Greetings to everyone who reads this post! Today I will talk about another interesting lottery called “Russian Lotto”. If you are wondering why I started writing about lotteries in the first place, read and you will understand everything.

1. Russian lotto - rules of the game

The principle of the game is the same as in regular lotto. Let me explain, if someone hasn’t played, several people are participating: the players and the presenter. Players buy tickets with numbers, and the presenter takes a bag of kegs and begins to pull them out.

When the presenter pulls out a keg, he says the number that is written on it, and the players mark this number on their tickets, if, of course, it is there. The one who closes his entire ticket before everyone else wins.

But there are also, so to speak, intermediate gains. For example, if someone's top drain is closed, he takes half of the bank. If it is lower, then everyone doubles the pot. But these are not specific rules; before the start of the game, the participants decide among themselves how they will play. This is how regular lotto is played.

The Russian Lotto lottery is carried out according to the same principle. That is, you buy a ticket (or several tickets), and then mark the numbers. Only the presenter “sits” on the TV and from there announces the numbers on the barrels.

Russian lotto has its own rules. We'll talk about them now.

Here you are sitting in front of the TV and crossing out (or marking in some other way) the numbers on your ticket. How do you know if you are winning or not?

The drawing is held in three rounds:

First tour. The winners are those who have 5 numbers closed in any horizontal line. Example in the picture below:

Second round. In it, those who completely cover any one field win. For example, like in the pictures below:

The third round, as well as all the following ones after it. Next, those who have all the numbers on their tickets closed win. For example, like this:

I'll tell you a little more about the jackpot. It is cumulative in nature, that is, if no one wins it in today’s draw, then the entire jackpot amount goes to the next draw.

Is it possible to win the Russian Lotto?

Of course it's real. Firstly, someone always wins in a regular lotto, which means that in Russian lotto Can. Secondly, this game has been shown on TV since 1994. More precisely, not a game, but rather getting the kegs, that is, a draw.

Do you think if no one won, people would still buy tickets? But many people buy tickets and win. By the way, what can you win?

There are two main types of winnings - cash and so-called clothing. Well, with money everything is clear - it’s money, from tens of thousands to millions of rubles. What is a duffel? Here, too, everything is simple - these are houses, apartments, cars, various vouchers, and so on.

The rules of playing Russian Lotto are very simple. Before the game, cards are drawn from a common pack, the number is agreed upon in advance. You can agree that one card costs 1 ruble or 50 kopecks. Players bet on the pot. The presenter takes out barrels with numbers, names them, and the players cover the numbers on their cards, if they have them. And the one who closes the line wins.

There are several game options

“Simple Lotto” - the first one to cover all the numbers on all his cards wins.

“Short Lotto” - the first one to cover all the numbers on one of his cards wins.

“Three on Three” - when one of the players closes the top line of any of his cards, everyone except this player adds a contribution to the stake according to the number of their cards. Game continues. When the middle line closes any of his cards, the player takes half of the pot. And the rest add half of their down payment. And the game continues. The first person to cover the bottom line on one of their cards wins. Then it's all over and the game is over. And they start again, choose cards and put them on the line according to the number of cards.

The beginning of the game begins with the choice of a leader who “shouts”, that is, mixes the barrels and takes them out of the bag and calls the numbers on the barrel. The presenter can also play or just “shout.” Depending on the version of the game “Simple Lotto” and “Short Lotto”, all participants have the same number of cards. In the Three on Three lotto, the number of cards may vary among players. And the amount of the contribution to the bet depends on the number of cards.

Progress of the game "Three on Three"

Players put money into the bank depending on the number of cards it has, for example, a ruble per card. The shouter, having mixed well, takes out several barrels and quickly calls out the numbers one at a time. The difficulty is to have time to check all your cards for the named numbers and close them with “covers”. You can use buttons or coins with a face value of 1 or 10 kopecks as “closures”. When any player covers four out of five on any line on one of his cards, he says that he has an “apartment”. Then the “screamer” discards all the unnamed barrels that he has in his hand and now takes out one barrel at a time. The game continues until any player has a line on any of his cards.

If a player has closed the top line, then everyone except him adds an initial amount of money to the bank, depending on the number of cards each player has. And the game continues. If a player closes the middle line, then he takes half of the bank, and all other players add half of the original bet amount, for example, a ruble for two cards. And the game continues. When any player closes the bottom line on any card, he takes the entire bank and the game ends. All barrels are thrown into a bag, and cards, by agreement, can be changed or old ones left.

Controversial situations in lotto

When two players closed the top line at the same time. Then they add everything to the bank except them.

When different players cover the top and middle lines at the same time. Then the one who closed the middle line takes half, and all players except the one who closed the top and middle line add to the bank. And the game continues.

When two players closed the middle line at the same time. Then these two players “argue” i.e. Only they play further, and for the rest of the players the game is over, and the first one to have any closed line wins. Then he takes the entire bank and the game starts again. Or another option, players simply divide the base in half and the game ends.

When two players have covered the middle and bottom, the player who got the bottom wins.

If two players have covered the top and bottom, the player who has the bottom wins, i.e. he takes the bank.

When two players simultaneously close the bottom lines, they also “argue” until the first next closed line and takes the entire bank and the game ends.

We apply these rules of playing Russian lotto when playing with relatives and friends and get a lot of positive results from this!
