EuroMillions | Pan-European Lottery Game

EuroMillions is the huge pan-European lottery game. You can either combine it as scores of folks do and play it alongside the UK Lotto or you can commit yourself to just playing this lotto by yourself and can potentially win just as much, if not more! If like a growing number of folks you decide to come on board and start playing it week after week you would evidently be making a wise choice as I am about to explain; As you would have perhaps guessed from the name, EuroMillions is played in Europe, it takes place once a week on a Friday and one of the great things about playing it is that it is not restricted to the residents of just one particular country! No, the EuroMillions Lottery pools the stakes of the nine countries that are currently participating.

These countries include Austria, Belgium, France, Ireland, Luxemburg, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the UK. So you can expect – it is enormous! And the prizes are a good deal larger too; this is mostly because of the substantial sum of people playing but also because the main pool prize is rolled over to the next draw if there is no winner and so the prize can be as high as 100 million Euros. It is no surprise then that the EuroMillions lottery is one of the biggest lotteries in the world and in all probability one of the most exciting as well.

The very first EuroMillions draw took place on Friday the 13th of February in 2004. It incorporated the 3 core lottery organizers; Camelot in the United Kingdom, the Francaise des Jeux in France and the Loterias y Apuestas del Estado in Spain. On that first draw the prize jackpot was worth fifteen million Euros. This is very impressive! Since then the highest single winner is a woman named Delores McNamara who won a staggering 115.6 million Euros which equates to about £77,000,000. And that is not all; in one draw alone 3 lucky winners received over 183 million Euros between them.

This also brings us to the tried and tested winning strategies that we have seen time and time again, it seems that lottery syndicates are proving to be one of the best kept secrets for continued winning success for a lot of people who are consistent at playing the lottery and serious about raising their probability so just keep that in mind!

So how can you boost your probability of winning? This is probably the million dollar question on every players mind and we would love to give you one easy answer if we knew it, but we do not. Furthermore, it would take away all the fun, excitement and anticipation of playing the EuroMillions every week would it not? But what we can do is offer you some beneficial hints and tips that we have seen work for ourselves and for loads of other players over the years.
