Joining the lucky Irish winner in the victor's circle were three more players who struck it rich too. With only one star number correct but all five main numbers, each of them is now set to receive a cool €7.8 million. Their identities, however, remain undisclosed.
The Ever-Growing Jackpot
Before the draw, it was apparent that the jackpot was nearing its €250 million cap. According to the rules, no more money could be added to it.
