Jackpot Alert#

The latest Mega-Sena draw has concluded, capturing the attention of players nationwide. Contest 2.962 was conducted on Tuesday night, January 20, in São Paulo, setting the stage for a life-changing prize.

The grand prize for those who match all six drawn numbers stands at an impressive R$ 47,640,352.59. While the winning combination has been released, the prize distribution details are still pending announcement.

The Winning Combination#

The official numbers selected during the live broadcast are now public. Players across the country are checking their tickets against this specific sequence.

The six numbers drawn for contest 2.962 are:

  • 06
  • 29
  • 33
  • 38
  • 53
  • 56

As the Caixa Econômica Federal has not yet released the prize distribution, the full breakdown of secondary winners remains unavailable. Players are advised to verify their tickets through official channels.

How to Participate#

Placing a bet for the next draw is accessible through multiple channels. Physical bets are accepted at any lottery retailer across the country until 20:00 (Brasília time).

For digital players, the Loterias Caixa website and mobile app offer a convenient alternative. The platform is available on smartphones, computers, and other devices.

Key details for digital participation include:

  • Standard bets close at 20:00
  • Pool bets close at 20:30
  • Payment via PIX, credit card, or internet banking
  • Minimum age requirement is 18 years

Pool bets, or "bolões," are exclusively available through the Loterias Online portal and the official app, with a slightly extended deadline of 20:30.

Understanding the Odds#

The likelihood of winning varies significantly based on the number of digits selected and the type of bet placed. The institution provides statistical data to help players understand their chances.

For a standard game consisting of six numbers, the cost is R$ 6.00. The probability of hitting the jackpot with this bet is calculated at 1 in 50,063,860.

Conversely, players can choose to mark up to 20 numbers on a single ticket. While this increases the cost substantially—reaching R$ 232,560.00 for the maximum—it also drastically improves the odds. With 20 numbers, the probability of winning the top prize is 1 in 1,292.

Looking Ahead#

With contest 2.962 settled, attention now turns to the next draw and the potential for the jackpot to grow if no one matches all six numbers. The R$ 47.6 million prize represents a significant financial opportunity for the winner.

Players interested in participating should ensure their bets are placed before the deadlines. The next draw will determine if this massive prize is claimed or if it will roll over to an even larger amount.

Frequently Asked Questions

The winning numbers drawn for contest 2.962 are 06, 29, 33, 38, 53, and 56. These numbers were selected during the draw held on Tuesday night in São Paulo.

You can place a bet at any lottery retailer across the country until 20:00 Brasília time. Alternatively, you can play online through the Loterias Caixa website or mobile app, which accepts payments via PIX, credit card, or internet banking.

The odds depend on the number of digits you play. For a standard six-number game, the probability of winning the jackpot is 1 in 50,063,860. However, playing 20 numbers increases the odds to 1 in 1,292, though the cost of the bet rises significantly.

The winning numbers have been announced, but the Caixa Econômica Federal has not yet released the prize distribution. It is currently unknown if a ticket holder has matched all six numbers to claim the R$ 47.6 million jackpot.
