This Tuesday, January 28, the FDJ invites you to try to win 17 million euros by playing Euromillions! You have until 8:15 p.m. (metropolitan time) to play in one of the French Games’ points of sale or directly on its website.
A chance on 139 million
Getting the Euromillions jackpot is a real master stroke: the probability of winning the jackpot is one in 139 million. However, the temptation remains strong, because the average amount of the prize pool is around 49.3 million euros if you guess the 5 good numbers and the 2 stars. If a star is missing, the gain is plummeting at an average of 470,300 euros, with one in 6.9 million chance of winning. With 5 good numbers but no star, we are talking about 80,000 euros on average, for a probability of one in 3 million. The gains still decrease with 4 good numbers and 2 stars, reaching around 4,800 euros (one chance in 621,000). To hope for even a modest sum, you must guess at least 2 correct numbers or a good number accompanied by two stars, but the gains rarely exceed a few euros in these cases.
In addition to the Euromillions, the French Games offers several weekly prints. Every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, the lottery offers a jackpot starting at 2 million euros for a minimum bet of 2.20 euros. The Mondays and Thursdays, the Eurodream draw promises up to 20,000 euros per month for three decades. Finally, Tuesdays and Fridays, it is the Euromillions turn to bring into play a minimum of 17 million euros. Players can validate their grids until 8:15 p.m. on the day of the draw.
