09/02/2009 by admin.

The Euro lottery is a hugely exciting international lottery product. You can either combine it as scores of folks do and play it alongside the UK lottery 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 people you decide to come on board and start playing it every week you would clearly be making a wise decision as I am about to make clear; As you would have perhaps guessed from the name, Euro Millions 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 limited to the residents of just one particular country! No, the Euro Lottery pools the stakes of the 9 countries that are presently participating. 

These countries include Austria, Belgium, France, Ireland, Luxemburg, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. So you can imagine - it is enormous! And the prizes are a great deal larger as well; this is mostly because of the substantial amount of folks playing but also because the main pool prize is rolled-over to the next draw if there is no jackpot winner and so the prize can be as high as fifty million Euros. It is no surprise then that the Euro lottery is one of the biggest lotteries in the world and almost certainly one of the most exciting as well. 

The very first Euro lottery draw took place on Friday the 13th of February in 2004. It included the 3 main lottery organizers; Camelot in the UK, the Francaise des jeux in France and the Loterias y apuestas des estad in Spain. On that first lottery draw the prize jackpot was worth 15 million Euros. This is very impressive! Since then the highest single winner was a lady named Delores McNamara who won a staggering 115.6 million Euros which equates to about £77,000,000. And that is not all; 3 syndicate winners received over 183 million Euros between them.

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

So how can you increase your probability of winning? This is possibly 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 Euro lottery every week would it not? But what we can do is offer you some useful tips and hints that we have seen work for ourselves and for lots of other players over the years. Remember, you do not always have to win the jackpot for it to make a huge difference to your life. Read on… 

There have been lots of Euro lottery players who have won a small fortune just by matching the five main draw numbers and just one Lucky Star. The chances of achieving this are 1 in 5,448,240 as apposed to 1 in 76,275,360 for winning the ultimate jackpot. But in these cases occasionally the jackpot has rolled-over for weeks at a time and so is sure fire to pay out even if no one wins the top prize. You can also extend your probability by merely buying more tickets.
