According to information from Caixa Econômica Federal, no bet hit the six tens of the Mega-Sena contest 2771, held, exceptionally, this Friday (09/06), due to the holiday on September 7th.

The drawn numbers were: 07 – 13 – 14 – 33 – 38 – 50.

There is also the option to let the system choose the numbers (Surpresinha) and/or compete with the same bet for 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, or 12 consecutive contests (Teimosinha).
