Euro Millions Prizes
Euromillions Draw
When playing
the
Euromillions we are all dreaming of scooping one of the twelve possible
Euro Millions prizes that each single ticket holder has available to
them; naturally it is of course the jackpot that we all crave.
The Euro
Millions jackpot is typically around £11 million (€15 million) but the jackpot
regularly becomes a much larger prize as a result of the winning numbers not
being matched in a given week(s); if this happens, the prize rolls over and
increases each week until it is finally won. These rollovers have created Euro
Millions prizes ranging from £20 million (€27 million) up to as much as £125
million (€170 million) depending on the number of times that the jackpot has
rolled over.
The odds of
picking up one of the twelve
Euro Millions prizes on offer are fairly good at 1 in 24 but the amount
of cash that each of these prizes generates can vary considerably in each
Euromillions draw. This is because the overall prize fund varies depending on
the number of Euromillions tickets sold throughout the nine participating member
countries. Another reason for the varying payouts of the different prizes also
depends on whether of not it is a standard starting jackpot week or a week in
which a rollover is experienced. For example, in a week where there is a
multiple rollover jackpot, there will clearly be a much larger prize fund on
offer; this results in larger Euro Millions prizes across the board.
How are the
Euro Millions prizes calculated?
The chances of
capturing one of the Euro Millions prizes in the Euro lotto draw are pretty
high; this is due to the fact that this lottery has been set up in a way that
can bring a winning experience to millions of people.
Although the
Euro Millions prize fund grows each week (rolls over) if the winning numbers are
not matched, the lottery’s operators have limited the number of times this can
happen before the prize is distributed. Therefore, there can now only be a
maximum of twelve rollovers. If at this stage the winning numbers are still not
matched, the jackpot goes to the next winning tier which would generally be to
the ticket holder(s) who match the five main numbers and one of the two lucky
star numbers.
The twelve
ways in which players can win one of the Euro Millions prizes are

the Euro Millions prizes is fairly good, the odds of them securing the
Euromillions jackpot are very unlikely at more than 76 million to 1.
If you
choose to play in an e-Lottery
Euro Millions syndicate you will be shortening these odds considerably.
