One lucky duck!
Someone has scooped the EuroMillions jackpot of €190 million, which was the maximum allowed pot under the game’s rules.
The winning ticket was sold some where in the UK.
In total, more than 203,000 players won prizes in Ireland.
The winning numbers were 7, 10, 15, 44, and 49, while the lucky stars were 3 and 12.
There was one winner from Dublin of the Plus top prize worth €500,000.The winning numbers were 4, 5, 14, 15, and 16.
The €190 million had to be won no matter what, making the odds of claiming a share of the top prize from €190 million to 1 to a more manageable 7 million to 1 due to a never-before enforced rule.
The jackpot had been rolling over since July 23rd and for the first time in the 15-years the game hit its maximum limit of €190 million on five consecutive occasions.
If an Irish person won the top prize they would have found themselves among the top 100 richest people in the country, in 81st place, ahead of Rory McIlroy who is said to be worth just €180 million.
