| 02/11/2004 - Americans in with Shot at New Euromillions CAPE TOWN, South Africa, February 11/PRNewswire/ -- European Superpowers will this week unite to form one of the world's richest lotteries. Euromillions teams economic powerhouses Spain, France and the UK, to chase the biggest jackpots ever seen.
According to the leading European lottery operator, the new game was created to offer substantial jackpots on a weekly basis. The first four jackpots are guaranteed at EUR15 million (around $20 million) and with rollovers could be in excess of an exorbitant EUR70 million.
The United States and Canada are not excluded from this opportunity, and can make their way to www.PlayEuroMillions.com to purchase entries online in Europe's biggest lottery. Tickets for the first draw taking place on the 13th of February, went on sale from Monday.
"This is like a Superdraw every Friday, and as a lottery portal operator for over five years, we are thrilled to bring this new tri-national lottery to the United States and Canada and enable players not based in any of the three countries to still take part in these massive jackpots," says Martin Ryman, CEO of PlayEuroMillions.com.
To win the jackpot, players need to select five numbers between 1 to 50, and another two 'Lucky Star' numbers between 1 to 9. It is also possible to play multiple entries per draw.
"With EuroMillions, players have an overall chance of 1 in 24 to win, and with a greater range of prizes we imagine this product will have wide appeal among players the world over," Ryman continues.
The idea for a multi-national lottery in Europe has been in the pipe-line for some time, and is a joint venture between Camelot in the UK, Francaise de Jeux of France and Loterias y Apuestas del Estado of Spain.
To take part in the lottery, players need to register on www.PlayEuroMillions.com and follow the easy steps to win the jackpot that will change your life forever.
