The block in which the above post is included has a merkle root of 81a075fc90ecb5218b67caeb03a76b97f0d93122.
The last two digits of this root are used to determine if there is a winner. Ending in 0 gives an upvote and ending in 00 means the jackpot was cracked. The remaining digits determine which ticket wins. To do this we compute the residual after dividing the root by the number of virtual tickets. In this case this would be:
81a075fc90ecb5218b67caeb03a76b97f0d931 = 2890774245114408459295020882209462312290539825 in base 10. The residual after dividing by the number of shares (455) is 230. Therefore ticket number 230 would win.

This time the root does not end in 0 and thus there is no winner in this drawing. The post will be upvoted to increase the jackpot
