Lotto on Wednesday: How high is the jackpot today on August 12th, 2020?
In the drawing of 6 out of 49 on Wednesday, August 12th , 2020 , there are 23 million euros to be won today . Normally, of course, the winnings are only awarded to those who have guessed the correct six and the appropriate super number. But not today, because the jackpot in game 77 is guaranteed to be paid out.
But whoever hits this jackpot is pretty worried and can put the resignation on the boss's desk tomorrow. In theory, anyway. A survey by Marktagent.com (from the 4th quarter of 2016 on behalf of Xing ) showed that only a few Germans would quit if they won a large amount in the lottery *. Only 18 percent (not even one in five) would stop working immediately if they suddenly became wealthy.
Obviously, a fifth (20 percent) of all Germans enjoy their work so much that if they won the lottery they would continue to work as before. The other respondents would reduce their number of hours or look for a new job.

Drawing the lottery numbers: the biggest mishaps
Probably the biggest lottery breakdown happened on April 3, 2013 at the Wednesday lottery on ZDF. "Balls and devices are checked as always," said Lottofee Heike Maurer during the live broadcast. At their start signal, the balls fell into the lottery machine. Actually as always, but this time two balls got stuck in their anchorage. The draw was declared invalid 22 minutes after it was broadcast on ZDF and was repeated.
In February 1999, luck literally broke in front of the camera. The last time it was shuffled for the lottery game 77, the ball with the number six fell apart. The drawing was repeated, the excitement was huge, the viewers complained to the broadcaster. "After that, the story was even in the papers in Indonesia," remembers ARD lottery faire Franziska Reichenbacher.
Every Wednesday the lottery numbers are drawn.

The draws on April 10, 1999 and July 30, 2014 were not a glitch, but they were quite strange. At that time, the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 26 and the numbers 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 37 tumbled than the six correct ones from the drum. Since then there has never been a series of five consecutive numbers in the history of the lottery. This is probably better for the tipsters too.
Because: An unusually large number of players rely on rows. However, the total payout is divided between the number of winners, so that each individual's share of the profits shrinks. In the 1999 draw, 38,008 winners only received 379.90 marks for their five correct numbers. With normal draws it would have been up to 10,000 marks.
