Overview
- A Eurojackpot ticket sold in Kreis Soest, North Rhine‑Westphalia, matched five main numbers plus one Euro number on Friday, August 28, earning the holder exactly €1,600,306.40.
- In the Lotto 6aus49 Saturday draw on August 29 a player in Landkreis Oberhavel, Brandenburg, hit all six main numbers but missed the Superzahl and received €4,025,429 as the sole winner in the second prize class.
- The Eurojackpot draw on Tuesday, September 1 produced the numbers 9, 14, 35, 43, 50 with Euro numbers 3 and 7 and included a second‑tier winner in Braunschweig, Lower Saxony, who collected €1,280,807.50.
- Because top prizes went unclaimed, the Lotto 6aus49 jackpot rose to about €39 million for the September 2 draw and the Eurojackpot had been around €15 million for the September 1 draw, keeping both games attractive for players.
- State lottery providers say winners usually remain anonymous until they claim, claim procedures and local cut‑off times vary by state, and players are reminded of payout deadlines and responsible‑gambling resources such as the BZgA hotline.
