Lotto Prizes and Odds
Lotto is the most promising and most popular Greek game of chance. It has a classical structure and fixed yet considerable prize payouts.
| Match | Prizes | Odds % |
|---|---|---|
| 6 | Jackpot (€10,000 per month for 10 years)* | 1 in 13,983,816 or 0.0000071% |
| 5 | €1,000 for 1 year** | 1 in 2,330,636 or 0.000043% |
| 4 | €30 | 1 in 55,491 or 0.0018% |
| 3 | €2 | 1 in 1,083 or 0.092% |
| 2 | €1 | 1 in 61 |
*The prize is pari-mutuel. If there are more than three jackpot winners, the total prize pool based on the €30,000 payout per month for 10 years is divided between all of them.
**Another pari-mutuel prize. There is a maximum payout of €150,000 per month for a year. So, if there are over 150 second-tier winners, the payout is shared equally between all of them.
Lotto PROTO game
European lotteries seldom offer any multipliers for players, so you can win just the prizes offered in the base prize charts. However, you can try to get some extra awards by adding the PROTO game.
This game generates a seven-digit number and offers the chance to win €1 million or more in six prize categories. The table below illustrates the formation of prize categories for PROTO.
| Prize Category | Conditions |
|---|---|
| Jackpot | You may hit €1 million and over if you match all 7 numbers. |
| Prize category 2 | 6 first or 6 last numbers are hit in a row and in strict order. |
| Prize category 3 | 5 first or 5 last numbers are matched consecutively and in exact order |
| Prize category 4 | 4 first or 4 last numbers are matched consecutively and in strict order |
| Prize category 5 | 3 first or 3 last numbers of 7 are matched in exact order. |
| Prize category 6 | 2 first or two last digits are hit in strict order. |
Lotto Standard and Full Systems
Experienced lottery players can increase their winning chances with Standard and Full Systems. Although the stakes are higher in this case, these game types allow participants to use more lottery combinations and develop their lottery strategies.

The Biggest Lotto Winners and Jackpots
OPAP, the Greek lottery provider, doesn’t offer any big winners’ stories for the Lotto, as it guarantees total anonymity after a lottery win. While their names are unknown, you may enjoy stories about the largest jackpots ever won that we prepared for you on our website.
Lotto Rules in Greece
Lotto is one of the most popular Greek games of chance established by OPAP, a state-owned lottery provider authorized to organize both lotteries and sports betting across the state.

However, it has recently undergone significant structural updates, offering players the following principles today:
- OPAP allows only players 18 and older to participate in the game.
- Lotto is based on the 6/49 matrix that was accepted for the game and remained the same after the latest updates. A typical Pick 6 strategy can help you win, so learn it in advance.
- There are five prize tiers available.
- The jackpot winners get €10,000 per month for 10 years, and the second-tier winners receive €1,000 per month for a year. It is much bigger compared to the previous prizes.
- The second and first-tier awards are pari-mutuel.
- You can take part in the Lotto twice a week.
- Only Greece and Cyprus players can participate in the Lotto.
