Eurojackpot's Unclaimed Million-Euro Jackpot - Germany's Lucky Tipsters Still Smiling
Eurojackpot Winners Bank Millions in Germany - Jackpot Remains Unhacked
Cracking the Eurojackpot's whopping €120 million prize remains an elusive feat. The recent draw saw no lucky winner, leaving the grand sum untouched and setting the stage for another showdown in the upcoming draw on Friday. Despite missing the big catch, two German tipsters are now stacking million-euro wins.
The rather fortunate duo hails from Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein, each basking in a share of the winnings. Regrettably, they came mere steps away from claiming the entire €120 million, a record win that still remains elusive. The Eurojackpot's current value will once more be a tantalizing €120 million, following Westlotto's announcement post-draw.
The second winning class was far from meager, as well. Its luckiest winners, residing in Lower Saxony, Schleswig-Holstein, and Denmark, collectively walked away with €6,061,762.90. Their winning numbers—1, 21, 22, 46, 49—matched those drawn in Helsinki, but a slight misstep in the two Euro numbers, 9 and 10, proved costly. Nevertheless, there were nine winners who Google's luck slightly more, snagging around €200,000 each. These windfalls were shared amongst five German winners, along with victors from the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden.
Interestingly, if a German player manages to guess the correct numbers during Friday's draw, they would tie the record of two previous German lottery players who accomplished this feat: one from Berlin in November 2022, and one from Schleswig-Holstein in June 2023.
As a reminder, the Eurojackpot, spanning across 19 European countries, caps at €120 million. The odds of winning in the first winning class stand at a formidable 1 in 140 million.
