EuroMillions is Europe’s biggest lottery with nine countries pooling in their stakes. The jackpot seeds at £13 million and is available twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays giving players two chances at winning £13 million every week.

There is no guaranteed way to win the EuroMillions lottery – after all, the game is based on luck however there are ways to increase the odds of winning. The first thing to remember is that a lottery player doesn’t necessarily have to win the jackpot to win big.

The EuroMillions lottery has thirteen tiers and on a £13 million jackpot, the second tier prize is worth, on an average, £390,156. This is won for five main numbers and 1 lucky star. The odds of winning the lottery jackpot are 1 in 116 million but the odds of winning the second tier prize are drastically lowered to 1 in 6.4 million.

Even the third tier prize is a decent sum and pays out approximately £48,000 for five main numbers. The odds of winning this prize are 1 in 3.2 million.

Another way of winning the lottery is to play when the jackpot rolls over. When this happens, all thirteen prizes go up in value proportionately and pay out larger sum. Case in point is the third tier prize which has an average payout of £48,000 but has paid out up to £244,474 due multiple rollovers.

Purchasing more tickets always helps with increasing a player’s chances of winning. This can either be done individually or by creating a syndicate with a group of friends. The advantage of a syndicate is that it allows players to purchase a lot more than they could individually afford.

Tonight’s EuroMillions lottery is worth £13 million and you can either play online by creating an account at UK National Lottery or purchase tickets at your favourite land based store. Don’t forget to check lottery results at EuroMillion Lottery.

Can you imagine winning €125 million on the Euro Millions and not knowing it . This is reportedly what happened to a young Spanish lady from Majorca. The EuroMillions lottery had rolled over 6 times before the lucky Spanish lass who was in bed with a bit of flu got a bit lucky and won an amount that could probably see her buy half the Island.

This huge €126 million jackpot amount is still the record win on the euromillion lottery.The next biggest amount won euromillions was won by Dolores Mcnamara who won €115 million, this win happened in July 2005 and was the biggest story in Ireland for quite some time.The Euro Millions Jackpot win made her the 72nd wealthiest person in Ireland at the time.

We all dream about winning the Lottery – it could be any Lottery really , the UK national lottery , Powerball in the United States or even El Gordo the Spanish lottery. All of these lotteries if won come with life changing amounts. The Euro Millions Lottery though is the biggest of the lot as it is paid out in a single lump sum and is tax free.
