What a hit!

A lottery player from Hesse is suddenly a multi-millionaire.

The jackpot of 45 million euros has been hit - in the 17th attempt.

Wiesbaden – It is a new German winnings record in the Lottery 6 out of 49 game, according to the lottery company Hessen.

The lottery record jackpot of 45 million euros goes to a single player.

The tipper had bet on the six right numbers including the super number and thus cleared the entire winning pot.

So the freshly baked millionaire does not have to share this incredible sum with anyone.

It is the “highest single win in the history of the German lottery.”

45 million: lottery player wins record jackpot

After 16 consecutive draws, the lottery jackpot had grown to 45 million.

In the 17th draw on Wednesday (April 13, 2022), a payout had to be made under the new rules.

Even if no lottery player had guessed all the numbers correctly.

Five correct crosses on the lottery ticket plus super number would have been enough for the jackpot.

But the lottery lucky guy from Hesse landed a direct hit in the top prize category: 2, 7, 22, 29, 42, 46 and the matching super number 2.

6 out of 49: Five correct numbers plus a super number could have been enough for the lottery jackpot

The lower profit classes get nothing.

It could have been exciting for some lottery players.

No one guessed six correct ones (prize category 2) on Wednesday.

On the other hand, 74 ticked five correct plus super number, reports Lotto Hessen.

"In accordance with the statutes of the guaranteed payout, they now share the unoccupied prize category 2 and win EUR 146,908.50 each," says Lotto Hessen.

That is a multiple of the usual rate.

The highest lottery win to date was almost 42.6 million euros.

A lottery player from Baden-Württemberg has held this record since October 2020 - until now.

Editor's note: The chance of winning Lotto 6 out of 49 is 1:139 million.

Participation in the game is only possible from the age of 18.

Gambling can be addictive.
