EuroMillions draw offers biggest lottery prize ever seen in UK
The biggest lottery prize the UK has seen could be won on Friday after Tuesday's EuroMillions draw had no winners.
The jackpot for the draw on Friday June 13 will be an estimated £208 million and would be the largest prize awarded in the UK if won by a single ticket-holder, National Lottery operator Allwyn said.
The EuroMillions jackpot is capped once it reaches 250 million euros – or £208 million.
Once it has reached its cap, and if there is no winner, it stays at this value for a further four draws until it must be won in the fifth draw.
This will be on June 20.
In the Must Be Won draw, if no ticket matches all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars, the entire jackpot prize will roll down into the prize tier where there is at least one winner – likely to be five main numbers and one Lucky Star.
Friday's EuroMillions Millionaire Maker draw will also see 13 guaranteed £1 million prizes won by UK players.
Players who play two or more lines online for Friday's draw will have a chance to win one of 13 luxury holidays to Thailand.
Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: 'With 13 guaranteed new millionaires, and potentially the nation's biggest ever National Lottery winner, it's the perfect time to defy superstition and take a chance.
'The unluckiest day of the year might just become a day you'll never forget.'

Biggest lottery prize in UK rolls over yet again after no EuroMillions winner
The biggest lottery prize the UK has seen could still be won after Friday's EuroMillions draw had no winners. Tuesday's jackpot will be an estimated £208 million and would be the largest prize awarded in the UK, National Lottery operator Allwyn said. The total prize money has now been capped, meaning prize pots in the next winning tier will be boosted. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: 'Tuesday will see the incredible £208 million EuroMillions jackpot still up for grabs. 'A win of this magnitude would create the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen. 'Get your tickets early to ensure you're 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're seeing multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star.' In Friday's draw, five UK players became millionaires after matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star, winning £3.61 million each. The main EuroMillions winning numbers were 02, 28, 40, 43, 45 and the lucky stars were 03 and 07. It also saw 13 UK millionaires made through a special EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker event. 'Contrary to superstition, Friday the 13th has proven the luckiest date in the calendar for these lucky UK players,' Mr Carter said. 'All UK EuroMillions players should check their tickets and contact us if they believe they are one of tonight's lucky winners.' No players won the £1 million HotPicks jackpot – which uses the same numbers as the EuroMillions draw. No players won the £500,000 Thunderball jackpot either. The five Thunderball numbers were 01, 02, 24, 33, 39 and the Thunderball number was 13.
