The most played gamble in Germany is the national lottery. It is held every wednesday and saturday. The aim is to bet on 6 numbers out of 49. The numbers are drawn out of a lottery wheel live in TV.

If you have all six numbers and the so called supernumber (a one digit number on your lottery ticket) you'll get the jackpot. The highest jackpot in Germany was worth 37 million Euros.

Not that bad, although the probability of getting strucked by a lightning three times in your life is higher than winning the German lottery jackpot.
