El Gordo, or "the big one" has one of the biggest prize pools of any lottery. This lottery is differently run than most.
Most lotteries have drawings once or twice a week. This lottery, however, has drawings twice a year with the largest being the Christmas drawing. Here, there is a prize pool worth between €2 and 3 billion.
Buying tickets for El Gordo is also a unique process. These tickets are expensive and can cost €200. However, if that cost is slightly above a player's price range, participants can join a group of friends or family members and go in together to buy a ticket. This is typically called a syndicate and is a very popular way to participate in the lottery. When this is the case, the tickets are divided into tenths and each share costs €20. Within El Gordo there are 195 jackpots each worth €3 and another 195 jackpots worth €1. In all, there are over 13,000 cash prizes to be won.
