Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2346005A2] The invention relates to methods for conducting lotteries. The technical result is that of maintaining and heightening the interest of the players in the process of the lottery itself. In the method, a player selects the conditions under which a lottery is to be conducted and effects a payment for participation. During the lottery proceedings, the player fills in data fields on a lottery ticket using numerical and/or graphical symbols, which are transmitted to a calculating device and processed to effect the draw. The players are then informed of the results of the draw and the winnings are paid out to the winner, wherein the symbols entered into the data fields on a lottery ticket are obtained during a preliminary lottery.
