What the odds mean

For one ticket, the supported maximum-pool estimate is 1 in 2,495. This uses the trusted maximum allocation of 2,495 tickets; it is not a prediction of the final number sold and does not guarantee a win.

Buying more entries changes probability under the supported model but never guarantees an outcome. Check the operator's current terms and live availability before entering.

Data confidence and transparency

This competition scores well overall. Strong on odds clarity. Weaker on value per ticket. 3 risk flags apply — see the breakdown. Always check the operator's official terms before entering.

  • Odds are 1 in 2,495. Calculable odds carry the most weight; smaller pools score higher.
  • Prize value estimate is missing.
  • Transparency reflects clarity of free entry route, extension policy, draw date and ticket cap.
  • Operator trust averages winner visibility, terms clarity, free-entry clarity and extension policy.

A free or postal entry method is recorded as available. Follow the operator's current instructions exactly; the paid online ticket price remains a separate field.

The extension policy is not clearly documented in the public comparison data.
