Eurojackpot
Eurojackpot is one of Europe's most popular lottery games, played in 18 countries including Finland. Twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays, five main numbers (from 1 to 50) and two star numbers (from 1 to 12) are drawn. If you match all 5 main numbers and both star numbers, you win the jackpot, which can reach up to 120 million euros. Other prize categories exist for matching fewer numbers, detailed in the table below.
