Exciting Lottery Wins and Insights Across Europe
A mother and her daughter from Vienne experienced an unexpected stroke of luck by winning a €13 million Loto jackpot earlier this May, announced by the Française des Jeux (FDJ). This remarkable win marks the second-largest lottery prize in the department, trailing only behind a €30.4 million Euromillions jackpot won in Châtellerault in June 2021. The mother's intuition played a key role during this rainy day, compelling her to play three grids using their lucky numbers.
The winning numbers, 2, 6, 12, 16, 19, and the lucky number 3, secured their life-changing prize. Upon seeing that their department, Vienne, was highlighted on the map, the mother realized their success. The family celebrated this phenomenal news together. The mother and daughter plan to use their newfound wealth for practical and leisure pursuits. The mother dreams of purchasing an electrically assisted bicycle, travelling, and possibly flying for the first time, while the daughter aims to buy a new computer, a car, and build a swimming pool.
In another lottery highlight, players across Germany had another opportunity to win millions during the May 29th draw. The Lotto 6aus49 remains a popular game of chance. The probability of hitting the jackpot, meaning guessing all 6 out of 49 numbers plus the super number correctly, is about 1 in 140 million. Despite the low odds, many hopeful participants continue to play, with the draw offering various winning levels and additional games like Super 6 and Game 77.
Participants in Germany could try their hand at the Lotto 6aus49 for €1.20 per game, plus a processing fee. The draw took place on May 29th, and participants had to ensure their completed forms were submitted by 6 p.m. in Hesse and 5:59 p.m. in other federal states. Winning the top prize requires precise guessing, but other smaller prizes are also attainable, adding to the excitement.
