While the US based PowerBall may have the biggest jackpots, there is no denying that the most exciting lottery in the world lies on European shores. EuroMillions has been making millions twice a week for years, with the jackpot heating up as summer draws near. Just this past week one lucky UK player found that his ticket matched winning numbers 1, 5, 22, 38, 10, 90 and 2, scooping the whopping £51.8 million jackpot in the process.

3rd British Euromillionaire

What the big win represents is another major windfall for the UK in 2016. No stranger to monster prizes, British players are becoming an all too familiar sight within the EuroMillions winner’s row. Marking the third British EuroMillions win this year already, the latest £51.8 million prize has certainly kept the momentum going.This jackpot win comes just weeks after another player claimed £24.6 million. Kicking off the British hot streak when it comes to EuroMillions was a £50 million win that occurred back in February, with things going from strength to strength since.

Real life millionaires

In recent years EuroMillions has become the stuff of legend. This is because it has taken the popularity of Lotto and raised the stakes with heightened prizes. For the same £2 cost, players are able to compete for the chance to become a real-life overnight millionaire.What has helped EuroMillions become a much more fathomable gambling format is its introduction into the online domain. Making the format truly international, EuroMillions through a number of intermediary websites can be played all around the globe.
