Strategy
Compared to other lotteries, such as Euro Millions and German lotto 6 out 49,, EuroJackpot is arranged this way, so that the main prize finds its winner more often (a chance to win a Euro Millions jackpot - 1 of 117 million, and less 1 of 139 million for German Lotto). As a result, the jackpot does not accumulate to the same levels, such as the Euro Million jackpot, as it is more often won. The biggest EuroJackpot jackpot has been raffled 15 May 2015 of the year. The prize went to the winner from the Czech Republic and equaled 90.000.000,00 euros.

To 31 january 2013 years for the accumulation of the EuroJackpot lottery there was a limit: if the jackpot is not hit within 12 consecutive draws, in the next draw, provided that no player guesses everything 7 rooms, the first prize goes to the winner of the next category. This situation happened in August 2012 of the year, when the record jackpot is 27.545.857,50 the euro went to the player from Germany, guessing 5 main numbers and only one of the additional numbers.
History
Eurojackpot lottery was offered in 2006 year to compete with the EuroMillions lottery . Due to the large number of countries participating, EuroMillions can offer significantly higher jackpots, than those, which are offered in one national lottery. Seeing the success of EuroMillions, Germany, Finland, Denmark, Slovenia, Italy and the Netherlands met in Amsterdam in November 2011 of the year, to complete negotiations for the Eurojackpot lottery and begin its deployment in 2012 year. After negotiations, Estonia also decided to participate in the lottery. First ticket sales started 17 Martha 2012 of the year, and the first drawing took place 23 Martha 2012 of the year.
Spain joined Eurojackpot with 30 june 2012 of the year, by granting a concession for ONCE tickets , National Organization of the Spanish Blind. 1 february 2013 Croatia joined, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway and Sweden. Czech Republic and Hungary joined Eurojackpot with 10 October 2014 of the year, Slovakia with 9 October 2015 years and Poland since 15 september 2017 of the year. For comparison, Eurojackpot has a wider reach of potential players with audiences in local countries in 300 million people, compared with 217 millions of euros.
On Friday, 10 October 2014 of the year, gameplay has changed: smaller set quantity, "Euro number", in the Packerett machine increased from 8 to 10. The odds of winning the jackpot have dropped since 1: 59 325 280 to 1 of 95 344 200.
What are the chances?
First you need to figure it out, what do mathematicians think about winning a foreign lottery game.
If you delve deeper into science and turn your attention to factorials as a way of calculating probability, then we can make the following inference: when choosing a lottery game, based on the principle 6 of 45, the probability of becoming the owner of the main lottery prize is 1 to 8 millions. You think, that such a chance is negligible? No matter how!
You think, that such a chance is negligible? No matter how!
Other representatives of the foreign lottery world provide a much lower chance of winning the jackpot. For example:
- EuroMillions (EuroMillions) – 1 to 250 millions;
- Powerball (Powerball) – 1 to 175 millions;
- MegaMillions (MegaMillions) – 1 to 115 millions.
Chances of getting a prize in any other win category, certainly, many times higher, but the amounts are radically different from the value of the jackpot. The probability of winning the smallest prize in these lotteries is:
- for EuroMillions 1 to 15;
- for Powerball 1 to 55;
- for MegaMillions 1 to 20.
Вероятность выигрыша можно самостоятельно рассчитать по математической формуле:
Chance = D (the size of the main prize): (TO (number of probable number combinations): C (lottery ticket price))
The perfection and accuracy of this formula is suspect. Mostly mathematical formulas, calculating the probability of an event, give very approximate calculations. After all, they take into account absolutely all combinations of numbers., but you most likely will not give preference to the number series 12,13,14,15,16,17, and the formula will take it into account.
After the numerical component, let's get down to visualization. Imagine (as much as possible), that millions of participants from all over the world are claiming the place of the winner and lucky winner of the jackpot. And only one of them can take this place.
