Rumblings over the way it is currently being ran.
I've been doing it twice a week for the past few weeks consistently but think ill stick to the few numbers with the bookies. Private companies only getting greedy.
Fine Gael TD Bernard Durkan has called for an urgent probe into the “unwinnable” National Lottery jackpot. Mr Durkan's comments come after the biweekly national lotto was rolled over again this week. The record €19 million jackpot has rolled over 46 times since it was last won on June 6th, which has prompted the Kildare North TD to raise questions. “It’s been almost six months since it was won. This didn’t happen in Ronan Collins’ day,” Mr Durkan said. “The jackpot has been stuck on €19 million since September. What’s going on? “We need a full investigation and audit into the draw,” Mr Durkan added. “I have never agreed with Premier Lotteries Ireland’s decision to increase the number of balls to 47. “I’m old enough to remember 1986 when there were 36 balls and that’s how it should have stayed.” Mr Durkan, who is on both the Oireachtas Finance and Public Expenditure committees, called on the chief executive of Premier Lotteries Ireland, Andrew Algeo, to remove some balls from the draw in an act of “good faith” to make the draw more winnable. “In the interests of public confidence, I also want a full audit into why there has been no winner,” Mr Durkan said. He is also calling for a return of the independent observer from KPMG, Stokes Kennedy Crowley, who used to stand beside the machine, “keeping an eye on things”. “I’m not saying anything odd has happened, but it’s the longest run in the history of the game, so we need a bit of reassurance.” “Currently ahead of tomorrow night’s lotto draw, the prospect of winning is so remote that punters must be thinking Shergar would have a better chance at winning Squid Game.” Mr Durkan has said he will also be writing to the Minister for Expenditure to express his concern. |

The Shergar and Squid Games quote is brilliant.
Fully agree with him though. Increase of numbers and gone on hand in hand with an increase in price too for years. I feel guilted into doing the plus too, just in case!!! Has anyone ever won on the "lotto raffle" they include on the tickets now? either euromillions or irish? We all know people who have been on winning streak but I have never heard of any winners of this and there should be multiples compared to winning streak.

FG privatized the lotto did they not? And then when it was privatized they increased the amount of numbers. I for one am shocked privatization has been poor the general public

2 of my neighbours in Dundalk won from the same estate. Both won a couple of millions. Probably 25 and 10 years ago now.

This. Imagine having 19m - like what are you doing to do with all that money. I'd much prefer the lotto to be split into much smaller prizes. |

Worst thing I ever done was pick me same numbers every week. Kind of has me on the hook now. Would much prefer to just do quick pick here and there If in the mood.
Playing all lotto and euro millions with the plus is about 80 quid a month
