Brazil’s Mega-Sena is set to offer an estimated R$75 million in its Thursday draw after no player matched all six numbers in the previous contest. The drawing is scheduled for 9 p.m. in São Paulo, with regular bets accepted until 8 p.m.¹

The account published by Brazil Left emphasizes the mechanics behind the growing headline figure. It says the jackpot accumulated after the Tuesday draw had no top-prize winner, and notes that a standard six-number entry costs R$6. Players may enter at lottery outlets or through Caixa’s official digital channels, provided they are at least 18 years old.¹

That report also places the jackpot in mathematical context. A simple bet has a one-in-50,063,860 chance of selecting all six numbers, according to Caixa. Players can choose more numbers to improve their odds, but at sharply higher cost: a 20-number ticket costs R$232,560 and carries odds of one in 1,292.¹

Brazil Right’s coverage reaches the same central conclusion in more concise terms, describing a Mega-Sena rollover that has lifted the prize to R$75 million.² There is no substantive disagreement between the two accounts over the draw or the prize amount. The difference is one of emphasis: one focuses on the accumulation and headline value, while the other adds practical deadlines, payment routes and the scale of the odds facing bettors.

For those entering online, Caixa allows payment by Pix or credit card, while its account holders may also use internet banking. Digital lottery pools remain available until 8:30 p.m., later than the deadline for regular bets.¹
