Massive Tuesday EuroMillions Jackpot!


Updated: Monday 23rd January 2017

The EuroMillions game this Tuesday 24 January will offer a jackpot worth a massive £76 million after no player proved able to match all seven of the numbers that were drawn in the previous game last Friday. Those numbers were 10, 17, 27, 31 and 49, along with the Lucky Stars 03 and 05, and the lack of a top prize winner meant that the jackpot has now rolled over for seven games in a row.

Thankfully, there is more than one way to win a fortune with a EuroMillions ticket, so even though the jackpot rolled over, there was still plenty of reason to celebrate for two players who each matched one of the Millionaire Maker codes. Those codes were JRMQ47796 and VSND43539, and the two players who matched them with their tickets can now claim a life-changing prize of £1 million each.

Every EuroMillions jackpot is well worth playing for, but when a sequence of rollovers sees the top prize snowball to several times the size of an average jackpot, the opportunity to win big deserves particular attention. To put the £76 million that will be on offer this Tuesday into perspective, if one player wins that entire sum outright, he or she would instantly be richer than many celebrities, athletes and musicians, including the likes of Holly Willoughby, Ronnie O’Sullivan and Olly Murs.

To get a better idea of what it might be like to win the £76 million jackpot this Tuesday, just imagine checking our free lottery app on your mobile phone and seeing that all seven of your numbers have come up. Your immediate reaction would probably be to scream and shout for a few minutes, or possibly to sit in stunned silence, but you would then want to call the lottery organisers to verify your win and make your claim.

If you are prompt about making your claim, your £76 million could be in your bank account by the end of this week, and you could then start making some big changes in your life. Would you like to quit work? If so, this could be the last week you ever need to show up at the office. Would you want a new car? You could take a test drive on Saturday morning and order your preferred set of wheels in your favourite colour. Would you like to move house? If so, you can spend this weekend looking at the advertisements for luxury properties in the Sunday supplements. 

All of that might sound like a very ambitious fantasy, but every year that fantasy becomes a reality for dozens and dozens of lottery players. All you need to do to give yourself a chance of making it happen for yourself is believe that success is just as possible for you as it is for anyone else. Then, once you have armed yourself with the required self-belief, you can buy yourself a ticket or two, think positive thoughts and see if Lady Luck makes your dream come true this Tuesday!
