Questions

How often do you get 0 in Tout ou rien?

The odds of matching none, 0 of 12, are 1 in 2,704,156 – the same as matching all twelve. Matching just one, 1 of 12, has odds of 1 in 18,779.

Is the simulator the real game?

No. It is a model that uses random draws and the official prize structure. No money or tickets are involved, and its results say nothing about real draws.

Do my own numbers have better odds than random ones?

No. Every selection of twelve numbers has the same odds, and past draws do not change the next draw.
