Sixth roll for Euro Millions jackpot
A sixth roll for the Euro Millions jackpot on Friday night, means that the midweek Euro Millions Lottery jackpot is up to £67 million! A staggering 3 million lottery players won prizes in Friday’s Euro Millions, from all nine participating countries but the jackpot rolled and that means a bumper midweek Euro Millions draw!
In the UK alone, almost £5 million was paid out in prizes in Friday night’s draw, despite the jackpot rolling over. The biggest prize winners in the draw matched the five main Euro Millions balls and one lucky star. Just five players managed to match the second tier prize, which means big prize money of almost £300,000!
This jackpot is the biggest since the Super Draw last month, when one player scooped over £105 million for matching all the balls on the Super Draw rollover. Before then, back on March 25th, two players shared a jackpot of £121 million; if there was a single prize winner on Tuesday night, they would collect more than each of the jackpot winners on that occasion.
So will we finally see a winner this week? Who knows? There really is no limit to how high the Euro Millions jackpots will climb. We knew the new rules might increase the probability of a rollover, so are we about to see a new record lottery jackpot? If you’re buying Euro Millions tickets for the draw then good luck, we’ll bring you all the news of the six-times rollover draw later in the week!
