Sweden Lotto Game
The Sweden Lotto game is a fairly old lottery game, having been created in 1896 when it was run by a company known as the Lotteriexpedition.; the first tickets for the Swedish Lottery were sold a year later and tickets for various games have been sold every since then. However, the Sweden Lottery commission has undergone a number of changes since that time. Today, the Swedish Lottery is run by a company known as Svenska Spel. They are a government licensed company which runs all lottery games offered in Sweden. Amongst their many popular games, a few that stand out are Poker, Casino Bingo, Casino Keno, Bomben, Stryktipset, Langen and Slot Machines. However, the game which everyone in Sweden loves to play and which we’re really excited about is the Sweden Lotto game.
Game Type
The reason we’re so excited about the Sweden Lotto game is that it’s one of the easiest lottery games in the world to win. The game requires that you pick 7 numbers, however the pool for those numbers is relatively low – just 35 choices, meaning the odds of winning are excellent. The game is played twice a week on Sunday and Wednesday evenings and is a progressive jackpot game, meaning that your chances of winning a large pot of money depends on how many times the game has been played with no winners until now.
Additional Prizes
There is also an additional prize offered in the Sweden Lottery game, which is offered by picking what they called the Swedish Lotto Joker. This extra feature is called Dromvisten, which means Dream Profit and you win by matching all 7 main numbers along with two additional “Swedish Joker” numbers.
There are also four additional prizes offered for matching 4, 5, 6 or 6 +1 joker number.
How to Play
Like most modern lottery games, the Sweden Lotto game is offered locally at kiosks throughout the country. However, the game is also offered online to anyone over the age of 18 who cares to purchase a ticket. You don’t even have to pick the 7 numbers since they offer a feature called HuxFlux, which is similar to the Quick Pick feature offered in most American lottery games.
Odds of Winning
The Swedish Lottery commission boasts that they have created at least 100 new millionaires every single year and in one year, they created 272 millionaires. We believe it given that the odds of winning are excellent. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 6,720,000. However, for the second prize, the odds go down to just 1 in 240,161 and for the third prize, the odds are 1 in 40,027. Odds for the fourth prize in the Sweden Lotto game are 1 in 847 and the odds of winning the fifth prize are just 1 in 59.
