The Slovaks missed the 31-million jackpot by a hair. Even so, he jumped at home at joy – TVNOVINY.sk

Was he unlucky or lucky? The bettor from Slovakia had both on Friday. Incredible bad luck at first. Only one powerball number separated him from the fairytale jackpot and the carefree life of trebárs on his own island.

However, the feeling of disappointment was immediately replaced by a feeling of happiness. For 18 euros invested, he won the second place – exactly 500,829 euros and 60 cents. And that’s reason enough for you to jump from joy to the ceiling at home.

The prize will provide him with an average monthly salary for the next 35 years. Without getting up in the robots in the morning.

However, if he still guessed the seventh number, his account would “jingle” instead of half a million equal to 31 million. And these are different numbers.

And who is the lucky winner? “At the moment we can only say that the bet was placed in the Bratislava region. The lucky Slovak, who will be able to credit € 500,829.60 to his account, relied on his own choice of numbers when placing a bet. He filled in 4 playing fields on the ticket and also chose to participate in the additional game Eurojackpot JOKER. At the same time, he decided to play twice in the international lottery with his bet. He paid the terminal staff 18 euros for the bet, “spokeswoman Ivana Skokanová informed us.

We envy the lucky one a little, but congratulations from the bottom of our hearts.

Two bettors from Finland and one German won the same amount as the Slovak, no one guessed all seven numbers, so 43 million will be played for next Friday.
