EuroMillions Jackpot Rises to £201 million (€234 million)

Tuesday’s EuroMillions draw ended in another rollover. That means on Friday, the top prize will be an amazing £201 million (€234 million). Will a ticket bought from Lottery24 scoop the jackpot.

One UK ticket came close to winning the jackpot on Tuesday. They missed out on a Lucky Star but still won £680,767.80

This will be the fourth largest top prize ever in the EuroMillions draw. Not since June 17 has the jackpot been won when  an Irish family won a record-equaling €250 million prize on this lottery.

There have been some more big wins in Ireland since that fantastic success. A woman from Wexford won €500,000 in the August 8 EuroMillions draw.

Hot day

On a hot day, she’d gone to the shops to buy an ice-cream. That’s not all that was purchased though. A EuroMillions ticket was also on her spending list, even though the winner admits that she wasn’t “thinking about the possibility of winning.”

It did win and the lucky player said when collecting her cheque: “This is a life-changing prize for me, without any major changes.”  Above all, it will provide her with “long-term security.”

Great start to August

Also winning on the EuroMillons draw was a player from Co Louth in Ireland. They won €500,000 in the August 1 draw. What a way to start a month.

Usually, they play with their own selection of numbers but not on August 1. A Quick-Pick ticket was purchased as they were in a rush and look at what happened.  An Australian player changed their numbers and then won a $795,000 TattsLotto prize.

It was on the morning of August 2 that their ticket was scanned. “You’ve won Big’ came up on the screen so it was time to check the results. In a panic the wrong draw was checked but then after looking at the right one the €500,000 win was discovered.

They now plan to use their winnings to give themselves a better future. Perhaps they will also play Friday’s EuroMillions draw and win another huge prize.
