Euromillions Winnings
The chances of scooping up the Euro Millions “jackpot” is a distant one in seventy-six million but the chances of winning a cash prize is a somewhat decent one : twenty four. If the “jackpot” is not won in a given lotto draw, it is carried over to the following week that will result in an ever increasing jackpot prize. Recent regulations added on the 09.02.2007 restrict the number of successive roll overs to eleven, with the jack-pot rolling down to lower value levels in the 11th lotto draw if the prize is not won.
The recent rules likewise initiated European Lottery “Super Draw” which go on twice yearly plus they offer jackpots in the region of 100 million pounds. The difference with “Super Draws” is that the jackpot must be won during the week of the draw; as a result, when there is no lotto ticket corresponding, all the numbers drawn and the top prize will then be allotted to the ticket bearer(s) on the next winning prize level.
