In the latest Mega-Sena lottery draw held on Tuesday, two bets from the Brazilian state of Alagoas hit the quina, earning them R$27,292.48. The winning tickets were sold in Maceió, the state capital, and São Sebastião in the Agreste region. According to the Caixa Econômica Federal, which organizes the lottery, the winning bets were simple tickets with a single bet, and one was a syndicate ticket split among eight participants.

Despite the two wins in the quina category, none of the participants managed to guess all six numbers drawn, which has resulted in the jackpot accumulating. For the upcoming draw scheduled for Thursday, the estimated prize is R$130 million. The news highlights the enthusiasm and engagement of Brazilian lottery players, particularly in states like Alagoas where wins can significantly impact local communities.

The Mega-Sena lottery, a popular form of gambling in Brazil, allows players to submit their bets at lottery retailers across the country or via the online platforms provided by Caixa Econômica Federal. Tickets can be purchased until 8 PM local time, while digital syndicate tickets are available until 8:30 PM. This ongoing interest in the lottery not only fuels hope for instant wealth but also contributes to various social programs funded by the proceeds of the games.
