UK EuroMillions Jackpot Hits £208 Million Record

The UK EuroMillions jackpot has reached a record £208 million after no winner emerged in the latest draw, making it the largest lottery prize ever offered in the country. The jackpot is capped at this amount and will remain so for up to four more draws, with a 'Must Be Won' event set for June 20 if the prize remains unclaimed, at which point it will roll down to the next winning tier. Five UK players each won £3.61 million by matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star, while 13 others became millionaires through the special Millionaire Maker event. Players who purchased two or more lines online are also eligible to win one of 13 luxury holidays to Thailand. Lottery officials are encouraging early ticket purchases as excitement builds, noting that Friday the 13th has been particularly lucky for several UK participants this year. Anticipation is high as the country awaits the possibility of its biggest-ever lottery winner in the upcoming draws.
