Loto Draw Sees 2 Million Euro Jackpot Unclaimed

On Monday, May 5, 2025, the Loto draw was held with a jackpot of 2 million euros, but unfortunately, no one managed to take home the grand prize. The eagerly awaited numbers were revealed during a broadcast on TF1 at 20:35, captivating players across France eager to see if they had struck it rich.

The winning numbers for the draw were 8, 9, 34, 38, and 47, with the Chance number being 3. While the jackpot went unclaimed, one lucky player did walk away with a significant prize of 132,704.00 euros after matching all five main numbers. This win is a reminder of the excitement that comes with participating in the Loto.

In addition to the main draw, players had the option to participate in a second draw for an additional 0.80 euros, which allows for another chance to win. The numbers drawn in this second round were 2, 43, 44, 47, and 49. A total of 138 players won 926.80 euros each by matching four numbers in this second draw.

The results of the Loto were published shortly after the draw, with players able to check their tickets against the winning numbers. For those who participated, the thrill of the game lies not only in the hope of winning the jackpot but also in the various other prizes available at different tiers. For instance, 26 players won 1,245.00 euros each by matching four numbers plus the Chance number, and 160 players took home 730.10 euros each for matching four numbers alone.

As the excitement of the draw unfolded, it was noted that more than 500,000 grids were winners in the previous draw on Saturday, May 3, where a player from Bouches-du-Rhône had won the jackpot with the numbers 19, 37, 38, 39, 42, and the Chance number 5. This previous win had set the stage for the current draw, which reset the jackpot back to 2 million euros after the Saturday draw.

Looking ahead, the next Loto draw is scheduled for Wednesday, May 7, 2025, with an increased jackpot of 3 million euros. Players are reminded to validate their grids before the 20:15 deadline on draw days to ensure they can participate.

The price of a simple grid remains at 2.20 euros, which includes the selection of five numbers and one Chance number. The Loto also offers a second draw option, which enhances the chances of winning a prize. For those who prefer to play on the go, the official FDJ app provides a convenient way to enter the game and check results in real time.

However, as always, the outcome of each draw is ultimately determined by chance.

In a world where the allure of winning can lead to dreams of luxury homes, exotic vacations, and early retirements, the Loto continues to capture the imagination of many.
