Things are getting hot in Munich's lotteries these days.

Operators of the acceptance points report large crowds.

The reason is the increased jackpot.

Munich - This has never happened in Germany: For the first time, a three-digit million amount is being played out in a lottery.

Around 106 million euros can be won in prize class 1 in the Eurojackpot on Friday evening.

120 million euros in the Eurojackpot: Huge crowds in Munich

The rush at the acceptance points is great.

"It's a lot busier, we work like an assembly line," says Horst Galiga (72).

He is employed at the Lottery Aubele acceptance point at Marienplatz.

Although there are many regular customers, Munich's walk-in customers are also currently finding their way into the store.

The Eurojackpot is the most popular.

Galiga estimates that nine out of ten customers take part in the lottery.

The maximum win in the Eurojackpot was only increased from 90 to 120 million euros at the end of March.

Hence the novelty.

Many a lottery shop in the city was not prepared for this.

Galiga had to improvise for the sign in the shop window.

Because three digits actually have no place here in the winning line.

Munich: Lottery hype unbroken – the decision will be made on Friday evening

Participation in the game is possible in Bavaria until Friday evening at 7 p.m. in around 3,500 Bavarian lottery acceptance points and on the Internet at www.lotto-bayern.de.

The ticket costs two euros per field, plus processing fees.

Numbers are to be ticked in two betting fields: in the first five out of 50 numbers, in the second two out of twelve numbers.

The numbers in the second field are called euro numbers.

For a hit in prize category 1 - i.e. for the 106 million euros - five out of 50 numbers and two correct euro numbers are required.

The chance of winning first place is 1:140 million.

The drawing of the lottery numbers will take place in Helsinki on Friday evening between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m.
