This Saturday’s €19.5 million jackpot must be won.If no one matches six numbers, the money will flow to winners in the lower tiers.University College Cork statistics lecturer Michael Cronin explains the odds:
"What the lottery has done is they have guaranteed that the jackpot will be won. But that doesn't mean that your chance has now increased dramatically such that you have a very high chance of winning the lottery. It's still quite removed, but somebody or some number of people will win probably the five plus."
