For those not familiar with how the payout system of the German Lottery works. It is not a system where one winner gets all, on the contrary, there are several other categories to win in apart from getting the 6 numbers correct.

In total there are 8 classes (categories) to win:

Class	Number correct numbers	Probability in%	Payout share
I	6 Correct and BN correct	0,000000715 %	10 %
II	6 Correct and BN wrong	0,00000644 %	8 %
III	5 Correct with AN	0,0000429 %	5 %
IV	5 Correct without AN	0,00180 %	13 %
V	4 Correct with AN	0,00451 %	2 %
VI	4 Correct without AN	0,0924 %	10 %
VII	3 Correct with AN	0,123 %	8 %
VIII	3 Correct without AN	1,64 %	44 %

BN: Bonus number: a number between 0 and 9
AN: Additional drawn number

For every class that has no winner, the assigned share of the payout goes into the jackpot.
