A jackpot that makes you dream. This Tuesday, May 3, the EuroMillions prize pool stands at 173 million euros. While the probability of winning a jackpot is small, other wins are more accessible to participants.
Players have until 8:15 p.m. to register their participation. In fact, the probability of winning the super jackpot remains slim, one in 140 million, or 139,838,160 to be more precise, according to FDJ statistics.
Players nevertheless have a one in 3,107,515 chance of matching all 5 numbers, but without any stars. On the other hand, their gain here will be “only” 20,000 euros.
By way of comparison, winning the ultimate jackpot of the other draw game, the Loto, is more accessible: one chance in 19,068,840 (since its new formula of 2008) according to the FDJ.
The EuroMillions does not only have losers: the probability of finding 2 numbers is much higher, ie one chance in 22, but the gain is more modest: 4 euros. Enough to finance a grid in the next draw if the super kitty is not won…
As a reminder, the last EuroMillions jackpot worth 54 million euros was won on Friday March 18, 2022.
