Irish Lottery Betting at William Hill: Grab the Luck of the Irish

    LONDON, ENGLAND, July 17, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Enjoy all the fun of the Irish Lottery

With William Hill, you do not have to live in Ireland to cash in on the Irish Lottery.

A lucrative lottery
The Irish lottery has been operating since as far back as 1987, when it launched its first scratch cards. Since then, it has evolved into a sophisticated and lucrative draw. There are at least twenty jackpots of 5 million euros or more guaranteed each year, plus at least one jackpot totalling over ten million euros. While its popularity dipped for a while several years ago, the huge prizes on offer have unsurprisingly made it a firm hit yet again.

A changing formula
In addition to the big prize money on offer, a change in format is another factor in the recent success of the Irish lottery. Where the lottery once consisted of selecting six numbers from a possible 36 options, it expanded in 2006 to a selection from 45 numbers. So now there is a significantly greater chance of winning a cash prize. A money win is awarded for selecting anything from three numbers upwards. In fact, the odds of selecting just three numbers are as low as 1 in 48.

Play with William Hill online
Incredibly, thanks to William Hill, you do not have to live in Ireland in order to play and have a chance of cashing in. In fact, you have an even better chance of a win than you would on the lottery itself. You can select up to eight lines of five numbers, chosen either by yourself or an automatic lucky dip. Select your stake and if your numbers come up in the real draw, you will be in the money. Even if you only select one correct number, you will pocket six times your stake.
