| What is the National Lottery? |
 |
The Spanish National Lottery is an official lottery organized by the spanish goverment, and it is played since year 1763.
In our opinion is the best lottery that exists for many aspects, highlighting:
- Distribuites the 70 % of the emission in prizes. This is the highest percentage of the world. This way the prizes to each ticket (décimo) are very big, and aproximately 35 of every 100 tickets has some kind of prize.
- The philosophy of the game is based in share the maximum number of prizes between the players, so each player has lots of opportunities of recover his money, and opt for a big prize.
- National Lottery has is totally guaranteed, because is endorsed by the Spanish Goverment
- The prizes are paid inmediatly, in an unique pay, free of taxes for life.
- The benefits obtained by the spanish government are used for social tasks.

| What are the special draws? |
|
Special draws are this kind of draws of National Lottey, that are traditionals in Spain, so many people here play. As there is a lot of people playing, with 100 tickets for number it is not enough (there are not more numbers than 00.000 to 99.999), so this is made making more series. This involves selling more tickets ("décimos") and therefore more prizes than in a normal draw (more money played).
The most known special draws are (but not the only ones):
- elGordo Christmas See
- elNiño Draw See
- Summer elGordo See

| How can I play to the National Lottery? |
|
You can play buying a ticket of lottery. On each draw there are numbers between 00.000 and 99.999 (except in elGordo Christmas Special Draw where numbers goes from 00.000 to 84.999).
There are draws held on Saturdays (National Lottery) and Thursdays (Thursday Lottery), of lower cost each ticket and lower prizes.
Each of this numbers is divided into "series", depending on the kind of draw.
- Saturday Draw: 10 series
- Thursday Draw: 6 series

And each of this series is divided in 10 décimos or tickets, that is what you can buy in our shop.
So, how many tickets do I have to buy in order to play a complete number?
10 series * 10 tickets ("décimos") each serie = 100 tickets ("décimos")
With this 100 tickets we would play a complete number of the 100.000 for each draw. Of course, that the prize can be HUGE, and the possibilities very big compared with any other kind of game.
