LOTTO. The result of the Loto draw for this Wednesday, July 19 is now available. Are there any winners of the 5 million euros put into play by the FDJ?
[Updated July 19, 2023 at 9:45 p.m.] This Wednesday, July 19, 5 million euros were up for grabs in this Loto draw. The results are now available… but unfortunately, there are no winners of today’s prize pool. There will therefore be 6 million euros to be won in the next draw, on Friday July 21. Nevertheless, check your ticket carefully, because 34 players have found four correct numbers and the lucky number, and thus won 6,682.80 euros.
The Joker number, the second draw option and the ten player codes drawn to win 20,000 euros are also available below:
But if you wanted to hope to win that amount, you had to play first. And the Lotto rules are quite simple. To do this, you had to go to your tobacconist, from whom you bought a grid on which you chose six numbers: the first five on a grid of numbers between 1 and 49, and the last, the lucky number to be selected between 1 and 10. It was also possible to play on the Internet on the sole condition of being of legal age, with proof of identity.
To win the lotto jackpot, you had to believe in your lucky star. Indeed, you had 1,906,884 possible ways to tick the boxes of your Lotto grid. And that’s not counting the lucky number – you had to choose from ten numbers. So you had a 1 in 19,068,840 chance of hitting the jackpot. You could still win smaller sums by finding, for example, the five correct numbers on the grid. At that time, you were a Rank 2 winner and had a 1 in 2,118,760 chance of making it. The fewer correct numbers you find, the lower your payout. Keep in mind that 17% of combinations are winning.
Do you know that a couple from Doubs, who won the very nice pot of 21 million euros on November 27, 2019, chose to continue working in their company? Indeed, they told their story to BFMTV: “We are still young to stop working, but we like to have time on the side, she is a secretary, we no longer work for bosses, but we don’t spend our days sitting on the couch”.
