INTERVIEW
It's simply unheard of. The pot of the Euromillions reaches 190 million euros. It's been weeks that the amount, to say the least attractive, is displayed on the front of tobacconists and press vendors. This is the ceiling of the famous draw game and whatever happens, Tuesday night, this sum will be liquidated.
"This is the first time that we have so much time during which the Euromillions is not won", explains to Europe 1 Stéphanie Pallez, the president of the French Games, which ensures that the jackpot will be redistributed even if no one finds the right combination. "If it does not win at this level, we redistribute it to the lower rank, so there will be winners and winners."
"Of course, it's good for our business"
One thing is certain, the Française des Jeux will also be one of the winners of the evening. "These are games that, the higher the jackpots are, the more players there are," confirms Stéphanie Pallez. "Everyone is interested in winning $ 190 million, so of course it's good for our business." To the point that the record of the number of players at Euromillions is beaten? "It could", just smiles the president of the FDJ in response.
