Overview

  • The official result for contest 2,955 was 09, 13, 21, 32, 33, 59, with the total prize confirmed at R$1,091,357,286.52.
  • Six winning bets will receive R$181,892,881.09 each, with three placed at lotéricas in João Pessoa (PB), Ponta Porã (MS) and Franco da Rocha (SP) and three made online.
  • Caixa reported digital peaks near 120,000 transactions per second and 4,745 per second in retail, citing the surge as the reason the Dec. 31 draw was postponed to Jan. 1.
  • The special contest generated roughly R$3.053 billion in receipts, and the draw was streamed on Caixa’s YouTube and Facebook channels rather than on television.
  • Beyond the six top-prize winners, 3,921 bets hit the quina for R$11,931.42 each and 308,315 hit the quadra for R$216.76, as bettors continued to report delayed confirmations and virtual queues.
