There was NO jackpot winner in the July 30th Italian Lotto draw. The winning numbers were 02-68-77-81-83-84 and Jolly Number 19.

The Italian Lotto Jackpot on Saturday, August 1st is now estimated at EU 113.5 Million.

This enormous jackpot is a new record for Superenalotto.  The previous record was set in October of 2008 when a slip in Catania collected 100,765,193 euros.

The Italian game has had the highest pot in the world for several weeks. Superenalotto's stratospheric pot has attracted a vastly growing number of betters both at home and abroad.

The advantage of the Italian game over others, especially those in America, is that SuperEnalotto pays out the full prize almost immediately, while US games give winners the pot in long-term instalments or pays a single, reduced prize.

Italian Superenalotto winners also receive interest on their winnings from the time they redeem their slips to when they receive full payment, which usually takes two months.

In order to win at SuperEnalotto, betters must choose the correct six numbers drawn from one to 90. The last time there was a winner was on January 31 and since then over 2.5 billion bets have been placed, translating into a total exceeding 1.25 billion euros.

There is also a 5+1 win, in which a seventh bonus number is drawn and can be added to any five of the original six-number combination. SuperEnalotto also pays out lower division prizes for five, four and three correct guesses.

SuperEnalotto, which made its debut in December 1997, has been a boon for Italy's state coffers which receive 49.5% of all bets made, far more than other national betting games which pay the Treasury between 20% and 25%. Draws are held three times a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
