National Lottery: Sazka

1) EuroJackpot: Europe-wide lottery

What is that. EuroJackpot is a transnational lottery in which EU countries (including the Czech Republic) participate. Draws take place twice a week: on Tuesdays and Fridays. The basic rule is to choose 5 numbers from 1-50 and 2 "Euro numbers" from 1-12. The maximum jackpot is limited to €120 million.

How to play.

1. Fill in combinations (one or more lines).

2. Buy a ticket from a licensed seller/operator's website in your country.

3. Wait for the draw (Tuesday/Friday night; draw takes place in Helsinki).

Key figures and facts.

Selection range: 5 of 50 + 2 of 12.

Two runs a week: Tuesday and Friday.

Jackpot "floats" to the ceiling of €120 million.

Note to the player. The timing of accepting bets and the procedure for paying winnings are set by the national operator (in the Czech Republic - Sazka). For details on the timing of applying for a win, see the EuroJackpot rules and on the Sazka side.

2) Sportka: Czech classic 6 of 49

What is that. Sportka is a historical national lottery of 6 out of 49 format with an additional "bonus" number (technical details and the number of draws depend on the current version of the rules). Draws take place three times a week: on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday - this is officially confirmed by the "How to Play" page on the Sazka website.

How to play.

1. Choose your 6 numbers (and additional options if necessary).

2. Specify the day/days of participation (you can play all available days of the week at once).

3. Buy a ticket - offline at points of sale or online at Sazka's office.

Why Sportka is popular. Simple "six out of forty-nine" rules, a frequent draw grid (three times a week) and a recognizable brand make it the "default" choice for first bets and regular play. (General game descriptions and draw grids are also supported by independent reference resources.)

3) Where and how to buy tickets

Official Sazka channels. Points of sale throughout the country and online participation through the Sazka account (subject to verification requirements). Sazka's homepage regularly posts current jackpots and products.

Timing of sale. The sale for the next run closes just before the drawing; specific times vary by game and channel. For EuroJackpot, the schedule is unified at the level of the entire game.

4) Verification, payment, important nuances

KYC. Online participation requires proof of identity and age in accordance with Czech rules.

Timing of claiming winnings. Each game has its own timeline; for EuroJackpot, the terms vary by country - focus on the "How to win" section and the operator's rules (Sazka).

Where to watch the results. Official numbers are published on EuroJackpot/Sazka websites and sales offices.

5) Responsible play

Lotteries are entertainment with a low probability of winning big. Keep the budget within the framework of "comfortable spending," determine the frequency of participation in advance and do not try to "recoup." Self-control tools are available in the personal account of licensed Czech operators.
