Why there's no fixed prize table
China Super Lotto is pari-mutuel: each prize tier shares a slice of ticket sales, split between everyone who matched that tier in that draw. So the odds below are exact and fixed, but the amounts change every single draw and can't be listed as fixed figures — anyone quoting you a guaranteed payout for these tiers is guessing.

China Super Lotto myths, busted
Every China Super Lotto draw is independent. A number that hasn't appeared in months is exactly as likely as any other — the balls have no memory.
Random picks and hand-chosen lines have identical odds. Quick picks only win more in total because more people use them.
A line like 1-2-3-4-5 is exactly as likely as any other. The only reason to skip popular patterns is to avoid sharing a prize if they come up.
