News about Euromillions lottery

With the product change, the maximum possible jackpot rises above the magic threshold of 100 million. The highest prize that can be won at the Eurojackpot since March 25 is 120 million euros. Previously, the limit was 90 million euros. Basically, the previous system remains that the jackpot is capped and cannot rise above the statutory maximum limit of 120 million euros.

In this context, the game formula will also be adjusted: Participants will continue to pick five numbers out of 50, but the Euro numbers will be 2 out of 12 (instead of the previous 2 out of 10). This changes the chance of winning the first prize from the previous 1 : 95 million to around 1 : 140 million. This change makes it possible for the jackpot to grow to 120 million euros. The chance of winning the Eurojackpot lottery decreases slightly from 1 : 26 to 1 : 32.

On 3 December 2021 the EuroMillions draw will not take place in the usual high-security studio near Paris, but in the Gothic Hall of the City Hall in Bruges. This is a unique event. Never before has the draw been held on the move. The occasion is the 580th anniversary of lotteries in Europe. Recently discovered documents show that these were organised for the first time in Bruges in 1441.

Special draw and jackpot

There is 130 million euros to be won with Euromillions on 3 December. There is also a special Extra Lotto draw that evening with a €3 million jackpot. A film crew from the French channel TF1 will film the event and distribute the images to other channels.

The Euromillions super jackpot has hit France: someone won €220 million on Friday night. Thirteen players won the handsome sum of 33,931.70 euros and 97 others won 1,416.40 euros on Friday.

This is said to be the biggest jackpot in the history of the European lottery since its creation in 2004. The French lucky person had the winning number combination of 21, 26, 31, 34 and 49 with the stars 2 and 5. The winner or winneress now has sixty days to register with the lottery company.

Last week, no one ticked the five right numbers on the Euromillions ticket. No winner in grade 1 means that the €220 million jackpot, which cannot get any higher for now due to European lottery rules, will be rolled over to the next draw.

The last super jackpot was won in Switzerland on 21 February 2021. The value of that jackpot was slightly lower, €210 million.

The Euromillions draw at the end of August had one of three winners guessing the correct combination of 5, 13, 17, 32 and 43 and the winning stars 2 and 10. As a result, the jackpot of €63,644,284 was shared. After two weeks, the Belgian EuroMillions winner has finally made himself heard. It is a Flemish couple who were on holiday. A call in the media finally rang a bell for them. The two are now over 21 million euros richer.

Detailed information is not released to protect the privacy of the winning couple. We don’t have any immediate plans yet with this wonderful sum of money,” the man states. We need to recover from the shock.

The 13-year-old son of British EuroMillions winner Adrian Bayford was seriously injured in a tragic accident last week. The boy was riding a quad bike in the large garden of his father’s villa when he was hit by his 15-year-old sister in a car. Both vehicles were apparently a gift from their father after his big lottery hood prize, local media reported. The accident fits into a string of sad events since Adrian and his – then – wife Gillian won millions in August 2012. They have since divorced.

Friends of former postman Adrian (49) tell British media that he is deeply to blame for the tragic incident. He would have given the quad and car to his children. He let his son and daughter drive around the house in those vehicles. While his daughter is too young to drive a car on public roads. Adrian and his ex Gillian are said to have not left their son’s hospital bed since the accident. The boy reportedly fell off his quad and through a fence. The 15-year-old girl then raised the alarm.
