  Fellow LP user Kazares made some posts about the Mexican lottery game Gana Gato, which I can no longer find.  At first I didn't understand how he was describing the game, but after reading on the Mexico Lottery's website, I now get the gist of it except for one issue, which is whether or not the number lines have to match in the same spot.  I could not find an answer to my question on any Gana Gato site, though it could be a language issue, so I'm hoping any Mexican lottery players or Gana Gato experts here can clue me in. 

  Here's an example to clarify:  Suppose I make the number selection

  5 5 5
  4 $ 4
  3 3 3

  ($ sign is the "comodin" or wild card) And now suppose the official drawing results are

  3 3 3
  2 $ 2
  1 1 1

  My question is, does my selection have a 1-line match for the 333 even though it's not in the same row as the drawing? Second question, if you do have to get the lines in the right spots, then what is the purpose of the center wild card?  It would not seem to be a true wild card in that case. Any help is appreciated, Thank you.

  Only my hairdresser knows for sure.

  Maybe you could understand my system for Gana Gato.

   

  Your selection does not have a match.

  My hypothetical example does not have an 8-line match, true.

  I'm trying to clarify if it has a 1-line match at 333 even though it's in a different spot.  It sounds like you're saying the position does matter, and so my hypothetical example would be a total dud.  Is that correct?

  That's what I suspected.  Thanks.
