Overview
- The Lotería de Santa Fe confirmed a record estimated pozo of ARS 20,000 million that includes a Siempre Sale presented as the equivalent of USD 3,000,000 for the anniversary draw on Sunday, Aug. 9.
- Betting stays open until Saturday at 21:00 and the live draw will be transmitted on provincial channels and the Lotería de Santa Fe streaming feed, with a national campaign and Soledad Pastorutti as ambassador to boost sales.
- The Siempre Sale rule guarantees the money is awarded every draw by reallocating the top prize to the highest‑placing winners if no six‑number ticket is hit, ensuring at least one winner or a shared payout.
- The prize will be converted to pesos using Banco Nación’s seller exchange rate fixed at the close of trading on Friday, Aug. 7, and a midweek Siempre Sale already paid a single Recoleta bettor about ARS 405 million.
- Coverage contains conflicting tax messaging—some statements call the prize 'tax‑free' while others say deductions are applied—which creates uncertainty about net payouts and will likely require clarification from authorities after the draw.
