The Quiniela, a popular gambling game in Argentina organized by the Lottery of the City of Buenos Aires, will release the winning numbers for today's Primera draw on February 13. This game does not feature a jackpot; instead, winnings are based on the number of correct bets placed by players, with a maximum payout cap set at five times the total amount collected. The format allows players to stake money on outcomes ranging from one to four-digit numbers.

The draw process involves a complex setup where four separate drum machines are used to select the winning numbers. Each drum corresponds to a different digit of the winning number. The first drum represents the thousand's place, the second the hundred's place, the third the ten's place, and the fourth the unit's place. This structured design ensures a fair and random selection of winning numbers, contributing to the game's integrity.

For many Argentinians, participating in the Quiniela is a deeply ingrained cultural practice, drawing significant public interest and involvement. The anticipation of the draw results not only represents a chance for financial gain but also a communal event, where people discuss their bets and hopes for winning. As the results are announced, they generate excitement and conversations across the country, further embedding the Quiniela into the social fabric of Argentine life.
