Feeling lucky? The Romanian Lottery organizes two New Year’s Eve draws this week

The Romanian Lottery continues the tradition this year and organizes two special New Year’s Eve draws on December 30. The players will have double chances to win a big prize at this year’s drawings. With the same ticket, they can participate in the main draw and the extra draw at the Loto 6/49, Joker, Loto 5/40 games, according to the Lottery. Moreover, for the extra draws, the Romanian Lottery has supplemented the prizes for the Loto 6/49, Joker, and Loto 5/40 games. However, there will be no double drawings for the Noroc, Noroc Plus, and Super Noroc games. The grand prize at the Loto 6/49 draws amounts to more than EUR 6.6 million. The Joker game also offers a prize of over EUR 1 million while at Loto 5/40 the prizes amount to EUR 66,500. The Loto 6/49 lottery’s grand prize was previously won in April this year by a woman from seaside resort Eforie Sud. She won a prize of over RON 13.4 million (some EUR 3 million). The biggest Loto 6/49 prize was won in July 2013 by a player from Galati – almost RON 49 million (more than EUR 11 million).
