    Hi, myself and the brother were in the bookmakers the other day and met a old man who lives near us.He had made a few pound on the horses and then placed €40 on number 36 to come out in the lotto draw at 6/1.The number came out last night so he wins €280 but can anybody please tell me what would be the correct odds for picking one number in the lotto?
