+John Teacake MVC Posted July 8, 2004 MVC Share Posted July 8, 2004 Does anyone in the UK put money on the Irish lottery ?. Its meant to be easier to win money because the prizes are more spread out. Like for example if you get 3 Numbers you win ?250 instead of ?10 on the normal lottery. It is supposedly only avalible at bookmakers and not at news agents like the normal lottery.

DerkPY Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Some people at work sometimes do. A lot of people have won as well. Hit and miss really. Usually play ?5 every month or something. I might get into it myself. You might win or you might not! But the odds of winning are higher.

..i Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Does anyone in the UK put money on the Irish lottery ?. Its meant to be easier to win money because the prizes are more spread out. Like for example if you get 3 Numbers you win ?250 instead of ?10 on the normal lottery. It is supposedly only avalible at bookmakers and not at news agents like the normal lottery. I'm in Ireland and the chances are supposedly higher than the english lottery but not as high as you make out. Firstly remember prices are in euro not pound sterling. Also 3 numbers for ?250 is way wrong. For example last week 3 numbers + bonus gave you €23 and there were 3,610 winners of €23. I don't know if your figures were just made up examples but they are way wrong. Last weeks results 1 Jackpot Winner 1,350,000 2 Match 5 + Bonus Wins 12,000 104 Match 5 Wins 770 174 Match 4 + Bonus Wins 143 5,091 Match 4 Wins 28 3,610 Match 3 + Bonus Wins 23 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/187735-ukirish-lottery/#findComment-2444997 Share on other sites More sharing options...

p0welly Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 My brother does it, you dont actually play the Irish Lottery (you can only do that if your in Ireland) you "bet" on the numbers that will be drawn thats why you can only do it at the bookies :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/187735-ukirish-lottery/#findComment-2445743 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nollog Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Lotto Plus 1 and 2 for 50c extra (not sure thats the right price) makes it easier to win SOMETHING though...
