The Euromillions lottery was originally launched by the national lotteries of France, the UK and Spain and was revealed in February 2004. The original lottery draw was on February 13-04 in Paris. The UK, France and Spain were the only nations partaking in the beginning but lotteries from Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg and Portugal also got active on October 04.
The euro millions lotto or the Euro lotto, as it’s usually known, pools the lotto ticket revenues of the 9 partaking European countries giving a massive Euro Lottery jackpot. With the number of nations joining the EU on the increase, this will without a doubt lead to even more countries partaking in the European lottery. An increase in the amount of people partaking in the Euro Lotto will lead to a continuing increase of the already huge euro millions jackpots.
Q. How Would You Play The Euro Lotto
Each and every player must select five main numbers from 1 to 50 plus 2 Lucky-star numbers from 1 to 9. During the draw, five main and two “lucky star” numbers are then selected at random from two draw machines containing numbered balls.
Euro Millions Prizes
The probabilities of scooping the Euromillions jack-pot is a remote one : seventy-six million but the prospect of winning a cash prize is a fairly decent 1 in twenty-four. When the “jackpot” is not won on a given lottery draw, it is carried over to the next lotto draw that will result in an ever increasing jackpot prize. New regulations brought in on the 9 February 2007 limit the number of consecutive roll overs to eleven, with the jack-pot rolling out to lower prize levels in the 11th draw when the prize is not collected.
The recent regulations also initiated EuroMillions Super Draw which go on twice each year plus they offer jackpots in the region of 100 million pounds. The difference with Super-Draws is that the jack-pot must be collected during the calendar week of the lottery draw; as a result, if there is no lotto ticket corresponding, all the numbers drawn and top prize will be allotted to the ticket bearer(s) in the succeeding winning prize tier.
