With the 6-number simple bet, 1 in 50,063,860 for the top tier. That is the same as the regular Mega-Sena, because the ticket is identical; what the Virada changes is that the prize does not roll over.
The chance grows in the same proportion as the cost. With 7 numbers the chance is 7 times higher (1 in 7,151,980) and so is the price (BRL 42.00). It is not a better deal, only a bigger one.
