Colombia. This Wednesday, November 16 2016 Coljuegos was quoted in the Third Committee of the House of Representatives to give answers on the alleged collection that takes away Baloto to lotteries and chances.
In this regard, Perez said that Baloto does not take away that collection and that the contributions of these games to health must be maintained.
In regards to the correlation that Baloto has with the chance and the regional lotteries, the official assured that it does not exist, or at least to a great extent. "Even now, when very high prizes were accumulated, in September Baloto accumulated $ 63,000 million, lottery and chance sales increased, this shows that there is no correlation, the profile of the player is different, the odds are different, To win the current Baloto, there is a chance in eight million, while the chance is one in 10,000," he said.
Likewise, he indicated what Baloto does is to attract new players when the prizes accumulated are of bulky amounts.
