Loteria Aldeota offers group bets that reduce the probability of winning the Mega da Virada lottery from 1 in 50 million to 1 in 80.

Alessandro Montenegro, CEO of Loteria Aldeota and known as “King of Lottery Pools”, participated for the second time in the Pânico na Jovem Pan News program this Tuesday (9) to present methods that can increase the chances of winning the Mega da Virada 2025. The businessman informed that the estimated prize of R$ 850 million could reach R$ 1 billion with the new rule that allocates 90% of the value to those who correctly guess the six numbers.

“We are talking about the biggest prize in the history of all Brazilian lotteries,” Montenegro highlighted during his appearance on the program. He explained that the Mega da Virada is special because, unlike regular draws, the prize does not accumulate – if no one gets all six numbers right, the prize goes to whoever gets five numbers right.

Loteria Aldeota celebrates two decades of operation and has maintained its position as the national leader in group lottery sales for 72 consecutive months. The company stands out among the 13.400 lottery outlets in Brazil and currently employs 100 people.

National and international service

The company has 30 saleswomen who serve customers via WhatsApp, sending photos of available betting pools. For bettors in Fortaleza and the metropolitan area, delivery is made by their own motorcycle couriers, while for other locations in Brazil, the betting pools are sent via Sedex (express mail).

"We ship anywhere in Brazil, small towns, medium-sized towns, large cities, we send Sedex to any city there," said Alessandro during the program. He mentioned that many customers from São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro use this service regularly.

The Aldeota Lottery also serves Brazilians living abroad. Gamblers from Japan and Switzerland, who follow the Pânico program, contact the lottery agency. In these cases, the company endorses the ticket, registers the gambler's name, and keeps the receipt in its safe.

Montenegro presented data on the odds of winning the Mega-Sena lottery. A single bet has a chance of one in 50 million, while his company's group bets, which range from 9 to 20 numbers, increase the chances of winning. A group bet of 20 numbers raises the probability to one in 1.292.

“The more numbers you play, the better your chances are,” Montenegro explained. “When you play a six-number game, you have a one in 50 million chance. When you play a 20-number game, you have a one in 1.292 chance.”

The company's differentiating factor, according to the CEO, lies in the special package with 16 group bets of 20 numbers each, which reduces the odds to one in 80. "With these 16 group bets of 20 numbers," Montenegro stated, "you have a one in 80 chance of winning, which is much better than one in 50 million."

During the broadcast, Lucas, a company employee, reported a high volume of calls on the phone lines. "The phone hasn't stopped ringing here. We're live now. So many people want to become millionaires, so many people want to change their lives with the biggest prize in the history of all Brazilian lotteries," said the employee.

Pool with the highest chance

Among the options presented, pool number 10 was highlighted, identified as "Look, I want Emilio's and Daniel's pool, number 10". This bet is worth R$ 3.139 and has shares limited to 100 people, with 97 spots available at the time of the broadcast.

The Aldeota Lottery offers group bets starting at R$ 121, reaching options such as R$ 3.139, corresponding to a bet with 20 numbers. Montenegro explained that making an individual bet with that number of numbers would cost R$ 232.560, equivalent to 38.760 simple bets of R$ 6 each.

“We have group bets starting from R$ 121, R$ 242, R$ 363, R$ 484, R$ 605, and so on,” Montenegro explained, showing the variety of options available for different budgets. He emphasized that the group betting system allows people with lower purchasing power to participate in larger bets, dividing the cost among several bettors.

For those interested, the company provides the toll-free number 0800 999 5050. Montenegro also invited listeners to subscribe to the Loteria Aldeota YouTube channel , which will broadcast the Mega da Virada draw live on December 31st and is close to reaching 100 subscribers.

“Let’s buy this lottery ticket here because we have a better chance,” said one of the program participants, while the host Emílio Surita highlighted that the game involves luck, strategy, and investment. He mentioned that the Mega da Virada (New Year's Mega-Sena) is a special opportunity because the prize does not accumulate.

The special combo mentioned during the program, which includes three 20-number games, reduces the odds from one in over 50 million to one in 430. This combo costs R$ 9.400, less than the approximately R$ 700 it would cost an individual bettor to play the same game alone.

Montenegro revealed that 35 people have already become millionaires through the Aldeota Lottery group bets. "At the time, we invited them, bought a group bet, back then it was only R$ 100, and each one won more than 3 million," declared the businessman.

“We have already made 35 millionaires in our 20-year history,” Montenegro emphasized proudly, reinforcing the company's credibility in the lottery market. He also recalled that Loteria Aldeota is a family business, founded by his father, and that it maintains the tradition of personalized service even with the growth of the business.
