Overview
- Lotto 6aus49 produced a €50 million winner in Thuringia on Saturday, August 15, and three tickets split a €50 million jackpot on Wednesday, August 19, events that together triggered the overflow mechanism to feed later draws.
- The Saturday, August 22, 6aus49 numbers were 7, 16, 22, 28, 30, 31 with Superzahl 4, and the draw left an elevated jackpot of about €31 million for the next 6aus49 drawing because surplus funds were carried over.
- Eurojackpot’s Friday, August 21, draw produced 25, 35, 45, 46, 50 with Eurozahlen 4 and 8; no top prize was won while a player in Hesse claimed the second prize of €907,909.50 and the jackpot rolled to roughly €39 million.
- Sachsenlotto says an Auftragsnummer 11507-58905861-23xxxx Spiel 77 ticket sold in Landkreis Bautzen won €777,777 in the July 6 drawing and remains unclaimed, with the operator asking players to check their slips or contact the Leipzig office within the statutory claim period.
- The Jackpot-Überlauf rule channels money that built up while the 6aus49 jackpot sat at its €50 million cap into following draws, which raises starting jackpots and short-term volatility of prizes even though the chance to hit the top prize stays about one in 140 million, prompting repeated reminders to check tickets and use available gambling‑support services.
