The prosperous Hong Kong

Recently, mainstream media such as China News Service have scrambled to report that the cumulative Hong Kong Mark Six lottery prize pool has reached 170 million Hong Kong dollars (about 140 million yuan), causing the Hong Kong people to be crazy. They lined up to buy despite the heavy rain, and for a moment, there were long queues of long dragons in front of major betting stations, which were very spectacular. Many lottery players in mainland China expressed their feelings and wanted to go to Hong Kong to buy Mark Six lottery! The prize pool of

Mark Six lottery of 140 million yuan is considered a slim in the eyes of mainland lottery players. You should know that our lottery pool has been above 2 billion for a long time, and is now close to 3 billion. Yes, but the effect brought by this nearly 3 billion lottery pool is far less than the sensation of the 140 million lottery pool of Hong Kong Mark Six lottery.

Hong Kong people are rushing to buy Mark Six lottery

In order to bring you into the scene, let’s take a look at the long queues for buying:

Before the lottery draw of the current Mark Six lottery, many betting stations had already lined up on the sidewalk.

Tsim Sha Tsui Hankou Road betting station, and the queues are continuously lined up outside the betting station, and special personnel are arranged on site to maintain order.

Hong Kong weather forecast even though it is said that "red and yellow rain" is coming, it has not reduced the enthusiasm of lottery players to buy lottery players. At betting stations such as Hankou Road, North Point Mabao Road and Stanley Street in Central, there have been people rushing, and you generally have to wait 20 minutes before you can buy lottery tickets.

According to Hong Kong Wen Wei Po, Hong Kong citizen Mr. He Chang said that Mark Six lottery not only made Hong Kong people crazy, but his Macau relatives came to Hong Kong a few days ago to spend 2,000 yuan to buy lottery tickets. Although the report did not mention that mainland lottery players bought tickets, according to my observation, many mainland lottery players left messages under the Double Color Ball Lotto Lottery news or lottery related news, saying that they would go to Hong Kong to buy Mark Six Lottery. What is the charm of the

.14 billion prize pool?

In fact, the reason why the 140 million prize pool is more sensational than the 3 billion prize pool of our Big Lotto is because there is no set of a cap prize in Mark Six. In layman's terms, if you have money in the prize pool, you will win all the first prize. Our Chinese lottery has a cap prize limit. The lottery is up to 3 yuan per bet for an additional bet of 16 million. This means that even if there is a 3 billion prize pool here, even if you win alone, you cannot take away the 3 billion prize, but you can only get 16 million.

In fact, there has been a long debate on whether the Chinese lottery market should lift the cap prize restrictions, and there is no right or wrong in each company's opinion. It is also a constant debate to determine which one is better and which one is worse. From the perspective of global lottery markets, mainstream lottery markets such as the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada have no restrictions on capping prizes. The author believes that if we take a step back, if the limit on capping prizes can be lifted within a certain prize pool amount range, it seems that our lottery can bring new vitality. The Hong Kong Mark Six lottery has a prize pool of only 142 million yuan, which can attract attention from Asia and even the world, while our 3 billion yuan prize pool does not seem to attract attention at all, which is worth thinking about. What is

? Do you want to go to Hong Kong now to "grab" the 140 million prize pool? It's too late!

This issue of Mark Six Lottery, which has the first prize pool in history, has won the lottery in all expectations. On the evening of the 10th, two first prizes were drawn, and the two lottery tickets each won 84.65 million yuan (HKD), and the 140 million prize pool has been divided! However, it is more regrettable that this lottery draw did not break the historical record of single bet bonuses in Hong Kong. On December 10, 2013, one person received 90.95 million yuan (HKD).

Let’s briefly learn about Hong Kong Mark Six: Mark Six (English: Mark Six), is the only legal lottery in Hong Kong and one of the gamblings that have been legally approved by the Hong Kong government. The Hong Kong Lottery Authority, the statutory agency, is responsible for the lottery. The Hong Kong Jockey Club accepts bets in the name of "Hong Kong Jockey Club Lottery Co., Ltd.". In addition to being used as a distribution lottery, the balance is allocated to the Social Welfare Department lottery fund for charitable purposes. (Dangdang)
