Jackpot behaviour

In comparison with other lotteries much like the EuroMillions as well as the German Lotto 6 aus 49, the Eurojackpot is made to pay out have an orgasm (1:95 million odds versus over 1:139 million for that EuroMillions as well as the German Lotto).

Up to January 31, 2013 the Eurolotto lottery had a ‘rolldown’ clause: when the jackpot isn’t won for 12 consecutive draws, the 13th draw will be at the mercy of a rolldown whereby if no winner has the capacity to match all 7 winning numbers, the jackpot pays over to another winning tier in which a winner can be obtained. It turned out this clause that set the first sort jackpot record of 27,545,857.50 Euros in August 2012, as being a German player who correctly matched the 5 main numbers, only among the Euronumbers (from two), walked away with all the jackpot from the second prize tier.

Initially the record for that largest jackpot for that EuroJackpot was intent on May 15, 2015 in which a person from Czech Republic won the 90,000,000.00 Euro jackpot.
