The probability of scooping up the Euro millions jackpot is a far-off one : seventy six million but the chances of acquiring a money prize is a somewhat decent 1 in 24. If the jack-pot is not won on a given week, it is brought forward to the following lotto draw that will result in an ever increasing jackpot value. New regulations brought in on the 09.02.2007 limit the number of successive roll-overs to eleven, with the jack-pot rolled down to lower value levels in the eleventh draw when the prize is not collected.

The Euro millions lottery or the Euro Lottery, as it is usually well-known, gathers the lottery ticket revenues of the 9 partaking European countries awarding a massive European Lottery jackpot. With the number of nations joining the EU on the increase, this will without a doubt lead to even more states participating in the Euro lotto. A growth in the amount of people partaking in the euro lotto results will lead to a continued growth of the already immense European Lottery jackpots.

The new regulations also initiated Euro Lottery Super-Draw which happen twice yearly and offer jack-pots in the region of 100 million pounds. The difference with Super-Draws is that the jackpot has to be won during the week of the lottery draw; as a result, when there is no ticket matching, all the drawn numbers then the top prize will be allotted to the lottery ticket bearer(s) in the next winning prize level.

Each and every player must choose five primary numbers from 1 to 50 plus 2 Lucky-star numbers from 1 to 9. During the lottery draw, five primary and two lucky-star numbers are then selected at random from two lottery draw machines containing numbered lottery balls.
