The prospects of scooping up the Euro Lotto jackpot is a distant 1 in seventy-six million but the odds of acquiring a cash prize is a somewhat decent one : 24. When the jack-pot is not won on a given lottery draw, it is carried forward to the next week that will result in an ever increasing jack-pot prize. Recent rules added on the 09-Feb-07 set the amount of successive roll-overs to 11, with the jackpot rolling down to smaller value levels in the eleventh draw when the prize is not collected.
The EUROMILLIONS lottery or the Euro Lottery, as it’s usually recognized, gathers the lotto ticket revenues of the nine partaking European countries showing a immense European Lottery jack-pot. With the sum of nations joining the Euro on the increase, this will without a doubt lead to more states partaking in the EuroMillions lotto. An increase in the amount of individuals partaking in the European Lottery will lead to a lasting increase of the already gigantic Euro Lotto jackpots.
The new rules also initiated European Lottery Super-Draw which go on twice annually and offer jack-pots in the region of 100 million pounds. The difference with Super Draws is that the jackpot has to be collected during the week of the lottery draw; this means, if there is no lottery ticket corresponding, all the numbers drawn and top prize will then be allotted to the lottery ticket bearer(s) on the succeeding winning prize level.
Every participant must select five main numbers from one to fifty plus 2 Lucky Star numbers from 1 to 9. During the lottery draw, 5 main and two lucky-star numbers are then chosen at random from 2 lottery draw machines containing numbered balls.
