If you haven't checked your ticket from Friday, you should perhaps do so quickly.
Eurojackpot: These are the winning numbers
The winning numbers on Friday were 2, 6, 8, 21, 25 and the Euro numbers 6 and 9. The lucky winner typed six numbers at the Euro Jackpot, from which all arithmetically possible five-way combinations were automatically formed, according to the lottery company on Saturday according to the German press agency.
This means that the still unknown lucky guy is the only person in Europe who has won class 1.
In addition to the Eurojackpot, the winner also played the Super 6 and Spiel 77 additional lotteries and gave these tickets together with the winning ticket.
Lottery games with a system: is that possible?
As nice as it sounds, the probability of winning the Euro Jackpot is only one in 95 million. The chance of six correct numbers and the super number in the lottery is even lower: it is one in 140 million. Statistically, you are much more likely to be struck by lightning. Despite all the statistics, both things happened to Peter McCathie from Canada: When he was 14 years old, he was struck by lightning, as was his daughter later. As an old man, the Canadian won one million Canadian dollars in the lottery in 2015. According to
ABC
, the
probability of this is
one in 2.6 trillion.
If you want to improve your chances at the lottery, you often look for game systems: 13 is the least likely number drawn, 6 is the most common winning number. So does it make sense to tap the 6 more often? This is not suitable as a system, because every number has the same chance with every drawing. Tactically approaching the matter is therefore useless: the lottery game is simply a matter of luck and is intended for entertainment. From a purely logical point of view, it would even be better to save the money for the weekly lottery ticket and invest it profitably. But there is also good news for those who did not win: wealth is not absolutely necessary for happiness anyway. Once basic needs are met, more money doesn't necessarily mean more happiness, says Martin Seligman,Professor of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania.
