It is generally believed that Spainish Sorteo Extraordinario de Navidad is the world largest lottery. On Christmas 2003 its prize fund approached around $2.2 billion with the first prize of $470 million and the second one of $235 million. However, as every number entered is printed on 170 tickets which are usually sold in fractions (usually tenths), the El Gordo prizes are usually split between the multiple winners. Therefore the winnings single players receive are generally less than in the other popular lotteries and are far from the “winner-take-all? concept popular elsewhere.
