Eight bets made in Paraná hit the quina of the Mega-Sena lottery during contest number 2977 held on the evening of Thursday (26). The winning bets were registered across five cities in the state, including both simple bets with various numbers of chosen combinations and two collective pools. The prize amounts varied, topping out at R$ 201,064 for a pool created in Curitiba, which included 11 numbers and was divided among 100 participants.

The winning numbers for the draw were reported as 08, 19, 27, 32, 38, and 52. While there were multiple winners of the quina prize, no one matched all six numbers of the Mega-Sena, leading to a significant rollover of the main prize. This has caused the jackpot for the upcoming draw on Saturday (28) to accumulate, reaching R$ 145 million, generating heightened anticipation among lottery players.

The article highlights not only the success of the local players but also the growing interest and stakes in lottery games in Brazil, as large prizes draw more participants. Lottery betting is a popular pastime, and this recent win further underscores the implications of collective betting pools in increasing individual winnings while also emphasizing the excitement around the Mega-Sena's substantial jackpots.
