Every figure on this page is calculated from the game's published rules. The operator's own odds page is linked below as verification — but the working is here, on this page.
A standard entry picks 5 numbers from 49 plus 1 from a separate pool of 7. The number of possible combinations is:
C(49, 5) = 1,906,884 × C(7, 1) = 13,348,188

"Winning combinations" counts how many of the possible outcomes land in that division. "Operator says" is the operator's published figure — shown so you can check us against them (small differences are their rounding).
Odds of winning any prize
1 in 6.79
Sum of all division probabilities — usually the number the ads quote.
Odds of the top prize
1 in 13,348,188
One standard game. Two games doubles it — and it's still tiny.
How long are these odds? Winning the top prize is about as likely as calling 23.7 coin flips in a row correctly (223.7 ≈ 13,348,188). If you bought one line every draw, at two draws a week you would expect one top-prize win roughly every 128,348 years.
