Illegal link
There is an external link to "A site where you can learn about the game and bet online.". This lottery is illegal and the link ought to be removed. -- 201.69.181.201 11:37, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Wrong betting values
The prizes mentioned to each bet is wrong. As it is the amount given as prize would be around the same as the amount betted. No game can be sustained like this. In fact most sponsors of the game only pay 0.4 of the amount betted. It seems like too little but is more than most legal lotteries pay. The prizes should be corrected like the following.


 * 1) Cabeça. 10 times
 * 2) Dezena. 40 times
 * 3) Centena. 400 times
 * 4) Milhar. 4000 times  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.17.35.253 (talk) 16:30, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
