Although all the numbers in the pot have the same chance of winning the jackpot, there are people who when buying a ticket look at every detail. One of the most common, the ending they choose. But José Manuel López Nicolás already said it in the book: “If you buy a tenth, it doesn’t matter the city, the administration or the termination: your individual probability of hitting the jackpot does not change, it is 0.00001″. Of course, sometimes, the statistics of the Christmas Lottery console us.
