Almost 23,000 euros won – but the jackpot remains out of reach!

An exciting weekend lies ahead for the lucky hunters of the Eurojackpot! In the Vorpommern-Greifswald district, a player caused a sensation when he missed the jackpot, which was a whopping 22 million euros. The player had chosen the numbers 1, 17, 20, 28, 42 as well as the Euro numbers 2 and 12, but he was missing the super number and a Euro number to claim the big win. Nevertheless, he can look forward to an impressive consolation prize of 258,963.40 euros, which is also no small feat.

The chance of winning the main jackpot is no small competition at 1 in 140 million. Despite the high hurdles, there is enthusiasm for the lottery, which is played in Germany and 18 other European countries such as Spain, Italy and Finland. No other player in all of Europe had the right combination, so the jackpot for the next draw on June 13th increases to around 31 million euros. There's something there, you could say!

A quick look behind the scenes

It is important for players to know how the Eurojackpot lottery works. A Eurojackpot ticket contains a total of 8 betting fields, each with 50 numbers and 12 Euro numbers. To win, players must cross 5 out of 50 main numbers and 2 out of 12 Euro numbers in a betting box. The draws take place weekly on Tuesday and Friday evenings in Helsinki, under strict police and notary supervision, as lotto.de explains.

But it's not just the numbers that are important. This year, over 35 million euros in winnings have already been distributed, with the jackpot alone being won seven times. Statistics show that the most common results in the draws often consist of a mix of even and odd numbers. Most recently, the numbers 3 odd and 2 even were drawn most often, which can provide a good indication for future tips. A look at euro-jackpot.net reveals interesting trends and which numbers are drawn most often.

An instructive example

Another example that illustrates the ups and downs of gambling comes from Cadiz, Spain. A building contractor won 6.5 million euros, but unfortunately later lost his money due to inadequate advice. Such stories should remind players of the importance of not only relying on luck, but also being smart about winnings.

With an encouraging new jackpot in the pipeline, players can look forward to the upcoming draw - perhaps the big money will soon belong to the next lucky winner from Vorpommern-Greifswald or elsewhere!

For the rapidly increasing jackpots and the dreams that come with them, Eurojackpot remains a thrill-seeking lottery par excellence.
