Group E3 launched to buy tickets for Brazil's Annual Quina draw with an expected payout close to 100%. The special draw will be on June 25. The jackpot is expected to be around C$50 million but has not been announced yet.
The deadline to join Group E3 has been extended to end of day on Saturday, June 16. The annual Quina draw has one of the best payouts of any game second only to the UK Lotto game. The only problem is ticket sales are so high for the game, there are always multiple winning tickets.
The best way to compare lottery games is the payout. It takes into consideration all aspects of a game including odds, jackpot size, cost of tickets and likelihood the jackpot may be split multiple ways. The upcoming Quina draw has an expected payout close to 100%. This is a big improvement over the recent record Lotto Max draw with a payout of 77%.
The game is explained in the following article:
