The EuroMillions reached its maximum jackpot on Friday, June 6 and can roll over five times, but what happens if no one
What happens if no one wins?
As the prize money is now capped at £208 million, a "Must Be Won" draw will be triggered after the fifth draw, which will be on Friday, June 20.
This means that the money will have to be given to someone that night.
Players can therefore win the huge sum of cash, without matching all five numbers and two lucky stars.
If no one matches the five numbers and two lucky stars, the fund will roll down to the
next
tier, meaning anyone who matches five numbers and one lucky star will share the £208 million sum.
If no one is a winner in this tier, then players who have matched just the five main numbers will share the prize.
The jackpot will keep moving down a tier, until there is a winner.
If there is a sole jackpot winner, they will become richer than Adele and Dua Lipa.

What has National Lottery said about the draw?
'This Friday EuroMillions gets even bigger", Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn said.
'Not only will we see the £208 million EuroMillions jackpot up for grabs – which would make the biggest-ever National Lottery winner – but there will also be an incredible 13 guaranteed UK millionaires made through EuroMillions Millionaire Maker.
I won lottery prize but Tesco refused to hand over cash due to ridiculous policy and now I'm banned from store
'That's a not-so-unlucky Friday 13th for the lucky ticket-holders who end up bagging these life-changing prizes.
'Get your tickets early to ensure you'll be in with a chance of a massive life-changing win.'
He added: 'The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier, meaning that we could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star.'

But users have already started raging about the quiet change and are threatening to cancel their subscription as a result. "My Prime account is up for renewal in August," one person wrote on Reddit.

While many of these alternatives have been filled with obscure content, more big names like Sky have got on board in recent years offering some quality stuff, which is largely archive but still entertaining. As well as UKTV, Sony and 5 are among the other players getting involved. If you haven't already, give Pluto TV a go, it's available on pretty much all devices including Fire TV Sticks. On there you'll find channels from MTV, with Catfish and Geordie Shore. Some of the classics are real gems too - I found myself watching long-forgotten episodes of Sabrina the Teenage Witch the other day.
