JA$272.5 million Super Lotto Prize as SVL introduces Money Time - JA$2380 to win JA$61,880 daily in Russian Roulette Cash Pot makes Christmas brighter

“SVL has always made it our duty to constantly be on the cutting edge of the Jamaican gaming experience, by adding exciting new additions to our portfolio offered. Money Time is our latest creation, where players will have the option to play and go or stay in the locations”

SVL's Vice President of Group Corporate Communications, Sonia Davidson, commenting on the new Game Money Time

While Jamaica rides out Chikungunya and awaits Ebola Virus, the Lotto Game from SVL (Supreme Ventures Limited) just seems to be getting bigger and more elusive.

Ironically, the most popular game among most Jamaica is Cash Pot, which is sustenance to many Jamaican, albeit you lose more often as noted by those interviewed in the article “Cash Pot survival”, published Tuesday, October 21, 2014 BY TANESHA MUNDLE Observer staff reporter, The Jamaica Observer.



SVL has now launched a new roulette style game called Money Time structured like Cash Pot that practically has a draw every 5 minutes, guaranteeing faster winnings as described in “SVL launches game which draws every five minutes”, published Sunday, October 26, 2014, The Jamaica Observer.

Super Lotto now at JA$272.5 million dollars – Jamaican finding JA$150 and JA$250 to spend

No one has yet won the Super Lotto Jackpot since I did my blog article about it back on Wednesday September 24th 2014 as stated in my blog article entitled “JA$261.5 million Super Lotto is Supreme Ventures Limited's Largest Prize - How to Win Super Lotto as Internet Gambling and Mobile Money payouts coming”.

Since Monday September 22nd 2014, when the article originally came out announcing that no winner was found, it’s been a total of eleven (11) consecutive non-winning draws since then. The prize table hasn’t been reset to JA$190 million, otherwise it wouldn’t have reached JA$272.5 million dollars. This according to the Supreme Ventures Searchable Results Database as show in the screenshot below!



Spending JA$250 on a full prize ticket or a JA$150 split prize ticket to have a chance of winning is clearly becoming problem for many Jamaicans as I’d predicted, given worries and subsequent spending due to the Chikungunya Virus epidemic sweeping Jamaica as pointed out in my blog article entitled “31 infected during Jamaican Chikungunya Virus Epidemic - 113 Deaths in the Caribbean as Jamaica grapples with Chikungunya Virus Outbreak”.

This is why the prize has ballooned to a whopping JA$272.5 million dollars as on Monday October 27th 2014! You can also see a list of past winning numbers by going the Super Lotto Website and selecting the Results Tab.

So how does this new Game work?

SVL introduces Money Time - Russian Roulette meets Cash Pot Style in a Game every Five minutes

According to the Supreme Ventures Website entry on Money Time, the game is quite straightforward.

It may also be the first almost round the clock game, with draws being offered from 6:05am each morning until 1:45am the following day i.e. Monday October 10th 2014 at 6:05 am to Tuesday October 11th 2014 at 6:05am, by way of example. Bets can be made for any number between 1 to 36 or a blank draw of “0” or “00”.

The draws aren't televised but you can get instantaneous results if you have the Supreme Ventures App on your Google Android smartphone or your Apple iPhone.

With smartphones being relatively cheap, selling for JA$5000 for the Huawei Y330 at any LIME Store or JA$13,688 for the Digicel DL750 as described in my blog article entitled “JA$13,688 Digicel DL750 Launched – Alcatel One Touch Pop C3 with Free TV App, DL600 issues in X-Men Origins First Class Days of Future Past”, once you download the Supreme Ventures Mobile App, you can keep track of the game results wherever you are.

Money Time by the numbers - JA$2380 to win a share of JA$61,880 each day is pretty intense

The high frequency of the game means faster winnings too if you can predict which number between 1 to 36 or a blank draw of “0” or “00”will be played in though next five (5) minutes.

This is evident from the prizetable, which on average rewards the winner JA$260 for every wining JA$10 bet:



Money time isn’t a televised or lives game broadcast over radio as I’ve pointed out before. Multi-draw is the name of the game as the draws come on so rapidly, the lines would be too long for you to joint to buy another draw.

So players are encouraged to buy multiple draws at a time, which if you were to tally a JA$10 bet on a single number between the playing hours of 6:05am each morning until 1:45am is 19 hours and 50 minutes or 1190 minutes of Game time.

You’d effectively have 238 draws per day and if you were to play all draws that works out to be JA$2380 spent for the day playing Money Time. But it's the winnings that may attract people as show in the table above multiplied by the 238 potential draws each day, assuming that the Supreme Ventures Outlet even opens at 6:05am when the game clock starts!

Due to the frequency of the draws each day players are encouraged to use the multi-draw feature on their bet-slips, which will allow them to purchase multiple Money Time draws simultaneously, so that they will not miss their number if drawn.

Money Time is the New Cash Pot – How Christmas 2014 may be Money Time for Jamaicans

So spending JA$2380 to potentially win a share of JA$61,880, assuming that all of those JA$10 plays in your JA$2380 spend on all 238 draws were to all win and no “0”or “00” were to pop up along the way. If however, you were to play the “0”or “00” all day, with a JA$2380 you’d have the chance to win JA$64,260 for the “0” and JA$66,640 for the “00” play, assuming that all of those JA$10 plays in your JA$2380 spend on all 238 draws were to all win.

Cash Pot lines may be long now. But I prophesy that by Christmas 2014, Money Time Lines and Multi-draw slips will be selling like hot bread as Jamaicans try to cash in on winning a share of JA$61,880 for wager of JA$2380 during the Game time periods of 6:05am each morning until 1:45am!

While you at it try your luck at the Super Lotto game. JA$272.5 million dollars as the potential payout after spending JA$250 on a full prize ticket or a JA$150 split prize ticket is a lot of money, whichever way you spin it. Armed with their Supreme Ventures Searchable Results Database of numbers and Super Lotto Website, getting your friends together into a Lotto Pool may no longer be such a difficult thing!
