LOTTO fever is gripping
Ireland as today’s EuroMillions jackpot is estimated
to hit a record matching €190 million. The current
EuroMillions jackpot has been rolling since Tuesday
23rd July and Friday’s jackpot could be subject to a
maximum jackpot cap. In the history of the game,
this is only the third time that the jackpot will
reach the cap of €190 million. |

Mega excitement as EuroMillions
jackpot continues to roll towards record equalling
€190 million maximum cap. |
Under the EuroMillions
community rules, if sales for Friday night’s draw
produce a natural jackpot of over €190 million, then
the jackpot is capped at €190 million and any excess
which would normally be allocated to the jackpot
will flow down to the next prize tier at which there
are winners.
Thereafter, if the jackpot is not won at the cap of
€190 million, it will remain capped at €190 million
for up to a further four draws, with any excess
jackpot value at each draw flowing down to the next
prize tier with a winner. If the jackpot is still
not won after the fifth draw at the cap, the full
value of the jackpot will flow down to the next tier
with a prize winner.
Ahead of Friday’s potential €190 million
EuroMillions draw, a National Lottery spokesperson
said: "There is genuine excitement among our players
as Friday’s EuroMillions jackpot is rolling towards
the magic €190 million mark, the maximum jackpot cap
allowed in the EuroMillions game". |
