history of Lotteries

  In classical mythology, Greek youths drew lots for the honour of being sacrificed to the Minotaur

Lotteries in the Western World: England
  The first recorded British lottery being chartered by Queen Elizabeth I in 1566 and not drawn until 1569. The lottery was chartered to raise funds for the "reparation of the havens and strength of the Realme, and towardes such other publique good workes". However this lottery was very different from those previously implemented as each ticket holder won a prize and the total of the value of the prizes given equaled the amount of money raised, thereby making the money raised by the lottery more or less a loan to the government over the 3 years that tickets were sold.

  After this first initial lottery, the government sold the rights to sell lottery tickets to brokers who in turn hired agents and runners to sell them to the public, thus creating the forerunner of the modern day stockbroker. Government-run lotteries were managed this way until 1826 when Parliament declared the final lottery. During the period before that however many private lotteries were also held, including one to raise money for The Virginia Company of London to support the settlement in Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in America.

 Playslip: game panels

   A «Loto Maxima» playslip consists of 6 game panels. Mark 5 numbers from the possible 42 in one or more of these panels. You can select a different combination of numbers on each game panel. You decide how many combinations will participate in the draw.

Alternatively, you may mark the [AUTO] box (located at the bottom of a play panel) for the computer to randomly select a combination for you.

  Each combination costs 3 UAH

Playslip: mistakes

  If you make an error in marking up a play panel, just mark the [NO] box on that panel. The terminal will then not take this panel into account during the play-slip processing.

You may continue marking your numbers on the other panels.

Playslip: consecutive draws

   You may take part in one, or up to ten consecutive draws.
To do so, mark the number of draws you want to take part in at the foot of the playslip. If you desire to participate in only one draw, simply ignore this section.

The price of your play will depend on the number of draws in which you want to participate. For example, you chose 2 number combinations, to take part in 5 consecutive draws, it will cost 2 x 5 x 3 = 30 UAH.

Playslip: system game

  You can boost your chances of winning by paying a "system" game.
   In a system game your entry consists of combinations of 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 numbers, rather than the typical six!
   All the different combinations of numbers that can be built from the numbers you choose will participate in the draw.


Quantity of selected numbers 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Quantity of combinations 6 21 56 126 252 462 792
Ticket cost, UAH 18 63 168 378 756 1386 2376

  Should you decide to play the system game you may use ONLY ONE GAME PANEL on the playslip. The terminal will not accept play-slips on which a system game is combined with plays in several game panels.

  Winning will also consist of sum of winnings of all combinations.
For example, if you select 6 numbers - 1 2 3 4 5 6 (and the prize numbers are 1 2 3 4 42) then all the possible six-number combinations are:
1: 1 2 3 4 5 prize 4х5
2: 1 2 3 4 6 prize 4х5
3: 1 2 3 5 6 prize 3х5
4: 1 2 4 5 6 prize 3х5
