EuroMillions HotPicks game launched on 25th January 2018. It is a distinct lottery-type game from the main lottery game. The main Euromillions draw is available in the official European EuroMillion countries, but the Euromillions HotPicks lottery option is only available to players in the UK.
EuroMillions HotPicks Draw Details
The HotPicks game offers additional prizes to the main draw between £10 and £1 million. While these are substantially less than the guaranteed prize jackpot of £11 million on the main EuroMillions, draw, the Euromillions HotPicks cost less.
The HotPicks draw is separate from the main Euromillions game, but the numbers picked during the draw every Tuesday and Friday determine Hotpicks winners. To play, you have to decide which numbers are between 1 and 50 that you wish to use for the Euromillions HotPicks draw and then choose which of the five games you will play.
You then have to choose if you will play in the HotPicks draw on a Tuesday, Friday or both. Each HotPicks Lottery draw takes place at 20:40 GMT.
