How to Play the Chinese Lottery




Today, it’s possible to play the lottery online and the old-school pen-and-paper way. This article will deal with the latter. Foreigners are allowed to play, so long as they have a legal passport and visa and are at least 18 years old.

How to Play
There are a few different ways to play, most of which cost just 2 Yuan to play. The China Welfare Lottery, or ShuangSeQiu (双色球), is similar to the Powerball in the US. Pick six red numbers between one and 33, then one blue number between one and sixteen. The Mark 6, another popular option, requires you pick five numbers between one and 35, then two numbers between one and 12.

The prize pots for these lotteries often climb into the hundreds of millions of Yuan. For the Shuangseqiu, getting all the numbers perfect--assuming you’re the only one--will land you 70 percent of the jackpot. Getting six red numbers out of seven right earns you 30 percent. Five correct reds and one blue will win you 3,000 Yuan, four reds plus a blue for 200 Yuan, three reds plus a blue for 10 Yuan, and just getting the blue right will nab you 5 Yuan.

The Mark 6 lottery works in a fairly similar manner as the Shuangseqiu, with seven divisions of prizes available. The chances of winning the jackpot are about 14 million to one. If no one wins, most of the money is rolled over to raise the jackpot - a minimum of about 5 million Yuan. Some of it is put into a “Snowball pool”, which is a special holiday lottery played on public holidays.

To play in the old-fashioned way, head to any of the many lottery vendors that line China’s streets. Just walk in and buy one, and pick your numbers. If you win, return the ticket to where you bought it. Small prizes are paid by the local merchant, but jackpots and other big amounts are paid by central lottery offices. Be sure to bring your passport.

To check the numbers, head to this Netease website. Your ticket should have a reference number on it that corresponds with the date. Use the dropdown menus to choose the appropriate lottery and reference number. Here you can view the payouts for each winning division and the numbers drawn for each day.

Be wary of scams. It’s better to buy tickets from brick-and-mortar shops than from street vendors. Don’t be like this Jiangxi man who attempted to hunt down the makers of a counterfeit scratch-off ticket.

Sports fans can put their knowledge and luck to the test with China’s sports lotteries. Check out our previous article on how to bet on NBA and soccer games. Who knows, maybe you’ll be the next lucky expat like thisGerman guy who won 647,000 Yuan betting on football.

Taobao, QQ, and WeChat all used to allow users to play the Sports Lottery from their respective smartphone apps, but after a regulatory debacle with the country’s sports authority earlier this year, those services have been indefinitely Suspended.

曾宪梓: 一鳴秋鴻一縷魂,

一江春水一場愁。

一憶傾國一伊人,

一次錯緣一生惆。

一輪明月一幻影,

一寐難醒一夢遊。

一抺夕陽一添歲,

一世悔恨一祈宥。

外鏈: 做一個內心明朗的人,與人交往,心存溫暖,你溫暖了,你的心才會柔軟,才會喚醒最純樸的情意。陰暗是心魔,讓人的心胸變得狹窄,猜忌是一道牆,隔著一顆想要靠近的心,狡詐更是入不了人的眼,唯有內心的善良與真誠,才能建起人與人之間溝通的橋樑,做人,要胸懷寬闊,多一些寬容和理解,無論何時,都要堅持自己的善良,並相信善良的力量,心有慈悲,眼裡才會有愛,生命定會更美好。
  
  內心明朗的人,常常保持著讓人愉悅的親和力,那份來自心底的明媚,是靈魂深處真正吸引人的地方,她們從不逃離喧囂的世界,相反,能在人聲中,靜守內心,傾其所有的去生活。她們很懂得把握自己,知道什麼該捨棄,什麼該保留,對生活有所選擇,對未來永遠保持這一份美好的期許,靠近了,會激起你心底里對生活的熱愛,一個人只有內心美麗了,世界才會美麗。

xiwu66499@gmail.com: 「差到令人震驚」,但不怪特朗普。俄羅斯總理德米特里·梅德韋傑夫近日在談到俄美關係時這樣說。俄羅斯近來連遭美國「惡毒」指責和西方國家連環出擊。一些國際輿論認為,俄羅斯成了「背鍋俠」,俄羅斯自己也公開喊冤斥責美國。在俄美你來我往的互掐中,真相似乎變得已不那麼重要了。
天上掉下「連環鍋」 紛紛擊中俄羅斯
「通俄門」餘波未散,美俄「媒體戰」仍在發酵,俄羅斯又接連遭到英國、西班牙等歐洲國家連環抨擊,指責俄羅斯與英國「脫歐」、加泰羅尼亞「鬧獨」等事件脫不了干係。
英國國家網路安全中心首席執行官夏蘭·馬丁11月15日嚴厲批評「俄羅斯網襲了英國的媒體、能源和電信機構,很顯然在尋求破壞國際體系」。
西班牙《國家報》稱,歐洲關切地注意到,俄羅斯的「隱藏力量」利用歐洲的每一個危機破壞其穩定,最近的例子便是加泰羅尼亞的緊張局勢。在試圖影響德國選舉、荷蘭就歐盟與烏克蘭聯繫國協定舉行的公投、英國「脫歐」公投後,針對西班牙的最新干涉事件,加劇了歐盟對俄羅斯網襲的擔憂和不安。
