How the maths works
Lottery odds come from combinatorics — counting how many ways you can choose a subset of numbers from a pool. The formula is:
C(n, r) = n! / (r! × (n − r)!)
where n = pool size, r = numbers to choose
For Keno Gagnant à Vie, you pick 10 numbers from 1–70 (a pool of 70 numbers):
Each ticket covers exactly one combination, so your jackpot odds are 1 in 396,704,524,216 — which matches the official published odds of 1 in 2,147,181.
Does buying more tickets help?
Yes — but the improvement is smaller than you might think. Each ticket adds one independent combination to your entry. With n tickets, your jackpot odds become n in 2,147,181:
