Viviane Leconte isn't one
to bet on the ponies -- too complicated to be much fun, in her view. But two
weeks ago, Leconte, a 58-year-old receptionist in Paris, finally found her
gambling Valhalla with the launch of EuroMillions, the first pan-European
lottery, and won $400 on her first try. "It's so easy," she beams.After more
than a decade of research, three national lottery companies have finally
rolled out the game they're betting can match the success of U.S.
multi-state lotteries. It's a Continental trifecta of sorts. Britain's
Camelot has joined forces with France's La Française des Jeux and
Spain's Loterias y Apuestas del Estado in hopes of swelling their
coffers, as well as those of lucky winners like Leconte. Terri La Fleur, publisher of La Fleur's World Lottery Almanac, thinks "the time is ripe for a 'mega' European Mega Millions Lottery Tickets, Megamillions, Megamillion, Mega Million, Powerball Lottery Tickets, Powerball Tickets and Powerball Online." The reason: Europeans are already the world's biggest lottery spenders, forking out $60.5 billion in 2002, 21% more than the U.S. and Canada combined. And preliminary estimates suggest that the figures for 2003 will follow suit. Those eight tickets that each won $175,000 did so by coming within just one number of hitting the jackpot. They matched the first five numbers and only missed the Mega Ball number. |
