by: admin - Category:
There are mere hours to go until the Italian Super Star draw tonight (February 7th) and fans playing lotto online around the world may be waiting in anticipation to learn if they have landed the coveted €60.9 million prize.
The Italian Super Star is – for some – an alien concept, but those who are familiar with the Italian SuperEnalotto may find the Super Star enhances their lottery experience.
For those who are yet to enter the Italian Super Star, the game allows fans of the Italian draw to play in the format as the latter but with unique advantages that could lead to more prizes.
Super Star enables lotto enthusiasts to get involved in a SuperEnalotto draw, but with the additional benefits of the Super Star number which multiplies the SuperEnalotto prizes between 25 and 100 times – potentially adding millions of Euros to top payouts and allowing for eight new prize categories.
Playing is easy. Entrants choose six numbers of their own or using a Quick Pick random number selector between one and 90 – which is the standard SuperEnalotto range.
The Super Star additional number is selected from a separate drum from the main numbers and the Jolly ball, with the same range (one to 90), adding fantastic cash prices to the five current SuperEnalotto cash prizes and makes three new prize categories of its own.
This means, Super Star players have 13 ways of taking home a cash payout.
Italian Super Star and the original world-famous Italian SuperEnalotto are incredibly popular around the world, especially with lotto fans who get their thrills from rollovers.
This is because – due to there being 90 balls in play excluding the Super Star number – the odds of the top prizes going unclaimed are higher.
Furthermore, unlike some other European draws such as the EuroMillions, the SuperEnalotto lottery family does not have a jackpot ceiling that – once the top prize rolls over to a certain amount after so many weeks – sees the payout divided between runner-up prize category winners.
Instead, the prize carries on growing, which can mean the payout inflates to extraordinary sums after weeks and months of going unclaimed – leading to more exciting draws as the tension builds.
