Odds of every prize
| You match | Odds | Chance |
|---|---|---|
| 5 numbers | 1 in 24,040,016 | 0.000004% |
| 4 numbers | 1 in 64,107 | 0.0016% |
| 3 numbers | 1 in 866 | 0.12% |
| 2 numbers | 1 in 35.6 | 2.81% |
Five numbers are drawn from 1 to 80. The large pool makes the top prize hard even though only five numbers are drawn; the duque, two hits, is the most common prize at 1 in 35.6.
Playing more numbers
Quina lets you mark more numbers than are drawn. Each extra number multiplies the combinations your bet covers, and the price multiplies with them: the odds per unit of money spent do not improve.

How long a jackpot takes
| Tickets a week | Years | Tickets in all | Chance of ever hitting the jackpot |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | 520 | 0.0022% |
| 1 | 50 | 2,600 | 0.0108% |

| 100 | 50 | 260,000 | 1.0757% |
Even a hundred tickets every week for fifty years leaves the jackpot far more likely missed than won. Buying more changes how much you spend much faster than it changes the odds; do more tickets help? works through it.
