The base jackpot level in the Irish Lottery game is €2 million, so the fact that there is €5.5 million up for grabs at the time of writing gives participants excellent value for money. EuroMillions players who are used to much larger jackpots might not think that €5.5 million is particularly impressive, but if you look at the odds of winning the Irish Lottery jackpot you will quickly appreciate how good it is.
As you know, the odds of winning the EuroMillions jackpot are 1 in 76,275,360, but the odds of winning the Irish Lottery jackpot are 1 in 8,145,060. Those odds make a €5.5 million jackpot look extremely attractive. You will still need a hefty dash of luck to with the jackpot outright, of course, but that observation applies to all lottery games.
