The jackpot was won by a player in County Mayo, it was a Quick Pick ticket. I hope the winner gets independent legal and financial advice before claiming their win. In that way, they can maintain their anonymity and secure their long-term economic security. Good luck

It's insane at the moment, Baker observed. People are going mad. One guy spent over 4,000 (US$4,565) today, another spent 2,000 (US$2,283) and one person spent 500 (US$571). That's the most we've ever seen here. People are buying way more lines than usual; it's very big amounts straight away instead of just three or four lines.

Was it Connor Mcgregor?

He probably played like 10 Grand Full System Jackpot Buster Wheel.

How about printing a 5 if 5 wheel? How far do you get with 6256.25 EUR

I always find it amusing that people think they've a better chance in the bigger ones,

No.. People see that the odds of winning a bigger payout are improved..

From

1 in 10,737,573 to win a million or so for 1st division to a

1 in 1,789,596 to win a million or so when it rolls down to 2nd division.

That is a five fold improvement in your chances of getting a piece of the jackpot... And given the usual numbers winning 2nd division currently being up to 3.. maybe you win 1 part in... [ More ]
