Characteristics of popular euro lottery
In this list, I want to share only the three most popular European lotteries.
3.1. Euromillions
In one of the previous articles, I described in detail the rules of the game and the history of the emergence of Euromillions. Let me remind you:
- The lottery is carried out according to the algorithm 5/50 (basic numbers) + 2/11 (additional numbers).
- You can buy a ticket at any time, like online, and offline. Sale ends for 1,5 hours before the draw.
- About lottery results, its upcoming draws and the current Jackpot size can be found on the website of the European lottery intermediary: agentlotto1.ru.
3.2. Eurojackpot
A very young lottery - exists since 2012 of the year, but already managed to gain popularity among Europeans, despite modest, compared to EuroMillions, Jackpots.
The rules of the game are very similar to Euromillions:
- Algorithm of drawing: 5/50 + 2/10.
- The draw is held on Friday night, broadcast from Helsinki.
- There is an official internet resource eurojackpot.com, where you can learn more about the rules and purchase a ticket. True, this site does not support Russian.
3.3. Viking lotto
This lottery project is not so well known in Russia and the CIS countries., like the previous two, but has the official status of a trans-European.
The price for one ticket is much cheaper, than more popular lottery operators, and is 2,5 euros.
- Draws are broadcast on Wednesdays.
- Drawing scheme:6/48 +2 bonus balls.
- Guaranteed jackpot - 1 million euros. The amount of the prize depends on the country- the participants.
