How do pools work?
The Mega da Virada lottery works in a simple and effective way. A group of people come together to buy shares of a ticket, usually at affordable prices, thus dividing the total cost of the bet. Each participant acquires one or more shares, becoming a co-owner of the ticket. This method allows even those with more limited budgets to participate in the draws for extraordinary prizes.
By joining a syndicate, participants share not only the costs but also the prizes. In the event of a win, the winnings are distributed proportionally to the number of shares purchased by each participant. This collaborative approach makes Mega da Virada more accessible and exciting, transforming the gaming experience into a social activity.
