The Euro lottery was originally formulated by the national lotteries of
France, Spain and the UK and was unveiled in early February 2004. The initial
draw was on February 13th 2004 in Paris. The United Kingdom, France and Spain
were the only European states participating initially but lotteries from
Austria, Belgium, the Republic of Ireland, Luxembourg, Portugal and Switzerland
then signed up to the draw on the 8th of October 2004.
The Euro lottery
or the Euro millions, as it is commonly branded, pools
the ticket revenues of the 9 participating European nations resulting in a
colossal EuroMillions jackpot. With the number of nations joining the European
Union rising, this will clearly lead to new states participating in the Euro
Millions lottery. An increase in the amount of individuals participating in the
Euro lottery will lead to a continuing growth of the already considerable Euro
lottery jackpots.
How To Play The Euro Lottery
Each participant is required to pick 5 main numbers from 1 to 50 and 2 “Lucky
Star” numbers from 1 to 9. During the draw, 5 main and 2 lucky star numbers are
then picked at random from two draw machines containing numbered European
lottery balls.
Euro lottery Prizes
The chances of picking up a euromillions lottery jackpot is a far-off 1 in 76
million but the odds of winning any prize is a reasonable achievable 1 in 24. If
the jackpot is not won in a given week, it is carried forward to the following
week which leads to an ever increasing jackpot prize. New rules introduced on
the 4th of January 2007 and became law on the 9th of February 2007 limit the
quantity of successive “rollovers” to eleven, with the jackpot rolling down to
lower prize levels in the eleventh draw if the prize is not won.
The new rules also established
Euro Lottery "Super Draws" which happen
twice every year and present jackpots in the region of £100 million. The
difference with “Super Draws” is that the jackpot must be won in the week of
that draw; consequently, if there is no ticket matching all the drawn numbers
then the jackpot will be paid out to the next tier in the prize structure.
A Selection Of The Top Euro Lottery Wins
• In February 2008, the “Super Draw” jackpot of €130 million was won by 16
people who matched the 5 main numbers and 1 “Lucky Star” number.
• On the 10th of August, a 40 year old previous Royal Mail postal officer from
Scotland scooped a euro lottery result jackpot of €52.6 million. Up to now, this
is the biggest lotto win yet in the United Kingdom.
• In November 2006, having rolled over eleven times, the EuroMillions jackpot
arrived at €183 million and was split between 20 blessed ticket buyers.
