The Euromillions Keeps on Rolling

Last Updated: Tuesday 6th September 2011, 13:59

So the Euromillions results are in and it seems that the Euromillions just keeps on rolling as we see our fourth consecutive rollover draw. The jackpot reached £40 million, but no one in the UK, or around Europe could match all those winning numbers to take the jackpot away. However, lots of winners in the draw, with over £3.3 million paid out to UK lottery players alone, and that’s just from the main Euromillions draw.

Last night’s Euromillions jackpot reached £40.6 million and that will now roll over to an estimated £46 million on Tuesday evening. The only millionaire created in the Euromillions draw was the single player to match the Millionaire Raffle number, KHY317790.

For the 5+1 prize, six players matched the second tier prize, two from the UK who will each receive over £200,000 each. Another fourteen players (two from the UK) matched just the five main balls to collect £29,000 each.

Across Europe over 3.4 million Euromillions players walked away with a prize, but the jackpot is now set to be a bumper one for Tuesday! After last night’s rollover, Tuesday’s Euromillions jackpot is set to be worth an estimated £46 million, the highest it’s been since the £161 million record jackpot was won back on July 12th.

Will this Tuesday see a UK jackpot winner for the Euromillions Lottery? We’ll just have to wait and see, but one thing is for sure, ticket sales are likely to be high for this bumper rollover jackpot!
