A Superdraw in October 2014 helped to create another €190 million winner, with a player from Portugal coming forward to collect the prize anonymously.

A single Spanish ticket, bought in Las Palmas on the island of Gran Canaria, matched the full winning line. The last time the jackpot got to €190 million was in October 2017, following a Superdraw in September that kept rolling until it hit the cap. This ‘rolldown’ feature has not yet been required, but there have been three winners of €190 million. If there are still no tickets matching all the numbers in the fifth draw at €190 million, the entire amount rolls down and is split between players in the highest winning category. The money that would normally go to the top prize is instead funnelled into the Match 5 + 1 tier, creating bigger rewards for players who just miss out on the jackpot. Once it hits this jackpot cap, it can stay at this amount for up to five draws. The jackpot can reach a maximum of €190 million. This happened in the last Superdraw at the start of February, when the jackpot rolled over four more times before a family from Co Dublin in Ireland matched all the numbers to win €175 million (£152 million). An even larger prize will then be available in the next draw. Yes, the jackpot will roll over as normal if there are no winning tickets in a Superdraw. Does the jackpot roll over if there are no winners? It is likely that another one would then be scheduled shortly afterwards as the money remains available in the Reserve Fund. If the EuroMillions jackpot rolls over to be higher than the advertised value for the Superdraw when it is scheduled, the Superdraw will be cancelled. It ensures that the minimum jackpot of €17 million (around £14 million) can always be offered, while it also allows the participating EuroMillions countries to organise exciting events such as Superdraws and European Millionaire Maker draws. This Reserve Fund serves a couple of functions. A percentage of the prize money is allocated to every tier in every standard draw, and 4.8 percent goes to the Reserve Fund (increasing to 21 percent from the seventh draw of a rollover cycle). Superdraws are paid for out of the EuroMillions Reserve Fund. It doesn’t matter whether it is won or not, or how high the top prize is, it will be increased to the advertised amount for the Superdraw. You can still win the jackpot in the draw before a Superdraw.

If the jackpot is guaranteed, does it mean nobody can win the preceding draw? It is then converted to pounds and Swiss francs on the day of the draw based on the exchange rate at the time. The jackpot is always calculated in euros as this is the currency used by all of the participating nations apart from the UK and Switzerland. The jackpot for the draw on 7th June will be €130 million (approximately £113 million). Superdraws are announced in advance, including the jackpot figure, giving players plenty of notice to buy tickets. What is a Superdraw?Ī Superdraw is a special EuroMillions draw where the jackpot is significantly higher than usual - usually worth more than £100 million - and is guaranteed to be put up for grabs on the scheduled date. It will be the second event of its kind this year. The next Superdraw will take place on Friday 7th June.
