The World Cup kicks off today but it isn’t all about football fever in South Africa, there is also a very nice lottery about to be drawn as well so lets get into the spirit of the occasion and take at look at the lottery from South Africa.

The Lotto as it is known is drawn on Saturday 12th June, the jackpot we are playing for this week is R4,000,000 and it cost’s just US$6.50 to play 5 tickets.

Prize divisions go down a nice 7 levels with the major prize awarded for matching 6 numbers drawn from a pool of 49. Other prizes are awarded for matching 5+1, 5, 4+1, 4, 3+1, 3.

The odds on winning at the last level are pretty good being around 1 in 57 people taking a cash prize. All awards are paid out in full in cash so it needed be just the football fans who are out partying over the weekend!
