December El Gordo Now Available
I noticed that El Gordo online is now taking orders for the December El Gordo drawing. This year the total payout is a whopping $2.2 Billion.For those who aren't aware, this is the REAL El Gordo, unlike all those scams you hear about. The easy way to recognize the scams is that they contact you before you've ever bought a lottery ticket. In the real El Gordo you buy the ticket (they're somewhat expensive) and then the draw takes place on Dec. 22, and you can look up the results on the Web sit

Spaniards celebrate 'El Gordo' victories in world's biggest lotteryReply
El Gordo works very differently than what most of us are familiar with. For illustration, there is a set of numbers from 00000 to 99999 this gives 100000 shares each number 100000 of them... 00000 00001 22345 23456... thru 99999 costs say $250 each so the entire series (pool) of numbers costs $250 X $100000 $25 million. They can also do say for eg. 10 sets of shares. There are vendors and those vendors sell the shares @ $250 each.............. a decimo a tenth is $25, so let's say the number pul

El Gordo
I am writing to inform you that the December 22nd El Gordo tickets are now on sale for our site. 'In It 2 Win It' has cut the costs of El Gordo tickets dramatically this year. Last year we were US$5 cheaper than other sites on a single ticket. This year we are US$25 cheaper. Other sites so not send your tickets and if they do you most likely never see them until after the draw. If you buy your tickets from init2winit.com, you receive all your tickets before the draw.IMPORTANT: However, to make s

El Gordo?Reply
Some lotteries already do an El Gordo-style raffle periodically. But I don't think there will ever be an El Gordo SIZED raffle in the USA, because in Spain it is a cultural thing, and nearly the entire country plays. In the USA games like Powerball and Mega Millions are more culturally adapted, with a jackpot that one person can win. (In Spain, the top El Gordo prize is smaller than a typical USA jackpot, and is won by many people.)
