A single ticket holder from Río Cuarto in Córdoba province matched all six numbers in the Siempre Sale draw of Quini 6 on Sunday night, securing a prize of $377,636,337 (approximately 345 million Argentine pesos at current exchange rates).
The win came during the weekly draw conducted by Lotería de Santa Fe, where the winning combination 07-11-12-26-30-36 was drawn at 21:15. While other Quini 6 modalities — including Tradicional, Revancha, Segunda Vuelta, and Pozo Extra — either produced multiple smaller prizes or rolled over to larger jackpots, the Siempre Sale category stood out for its sole winner and the immediate payout of its accumulated pool.
According to TyC Sports, the Siempre Sale draw has historically guaranteed at least one winner per draw due to its structure, which differs from other modalities where prizes accumulate when no one matches all six numbers. In this instance, the uniqueness lay not in the absence of winners elsewhere — Revancha and Segunda Vuelta both rolled over, with Revancha now offering over $2.4 billion and Tradicional holding steady at $780 million — but in the concentration of the entire Siempre Sale prize in one ticket.
El Litoral confirmed the winner’s origin, specifying the ticket was sold in Río Cuarto, a city of approximately 150,000 inhabitants in southern Córdoba. The outlet noted that while Quini 6 draws occur every Wednesday and Sunday, prizes of this magnitude in a single modality are infrequent, with the last comparable Siempre Sale payout exceeding $300 million occurring in October 2023, when a ticket holder from Rosario claimed the top prize.
Lotería de Santa Fe announced that the next Quini 6 draw will take place on Wednesday, April 22, at 21:15, with estimated individual pools of $830 million for Tradicional Primer Sorteo and $295 million for Siempre Sale. The results will be broadcast live on RTS Santa Fe, Argentina 12, Telefe Santa Fe, Canal 9 (Paraná), Televisión Pública, and the official Lotería YouTube channel.
For players, the cutoff for placing bets remains 19:00 on Wednesdays and 20:30 on Sundays, with the game’s variable prize structure meaning pools fluctuate based on ticket sales and prior rollovers. Despite the recent windfall in Córdoba, the game’s odds remain steep: approximately 1 in 50,063,860 for matching all six numbers in any single modality.
How often does a single winner claim the entire Siempre Sale pool?
While the Siempre Sale modality is designed to produce at least one winner per draw, it is uncommon for the entire pool to be claimed by a single ticket; splits between two or more winners occur regularly, making Sunday’s solitary payout notable.
What happens to the unclaimed prizes in other Quini 6 modalities?
In draws where no ticket matches all six numbers — as occurred in Revancha, Segunda Vuelta, and Tradicional on April 20 — the prize money rolls over to the next draw, increasing the jackpot for future players.
