Lottery

A special Millionaire Raffle event has been announced for Friday 31 May, and if you like the idea of winning a million then you will like the aforementioned event game twelve times as much. We say that because the EuroMillions lottery player who wins the Millionaire Raffle game in the featured draw will not just win £1 million, but rather £1 million each and every month for an entire year! Even better, if you buy your tickets for the next three draws in advance you can already guarantee your participation in this exciting event!

Two players won the UK Lotto jackpot on Saturday 18 May, but the lottery limelight was well and truly stolen by the Powerball game in the USA, which saw its biggest ever jackpot landed by a single ticket. Saturday’s Powerball jackpot was worth $590.5 million, beating the previous record of $587.5 million, and the winning ticket was sold in the state of Florida. Whilst we applaud that fantastic success, we would also like to congratulate the two players who shared a jackpot worth £3,753,310 in our own Lotto game.

It is becoming increasingly common for draw-based lottery games to offer an additional ‘raffle’ element that creates a guaranteed winner regardless of what happens in the main draw. The Millionaire Raffle is the best known example, giving one UK player a prize of £1 million every time a EuroMillions game takes place. The Lotto game will also be introducing a raffle in autumn 2013, and that will create at least 50 winners of £20,000 each in every Lotto draw. With raffle games becoming more widespread, it makes sense to take a look at some lottery raffle strategies that might help you to win big.
