Any link to this chaps? As an avid online player i often just add funds to my account and forget about it until the eventual "some exciting news about your account!" email only to find out its £2.50 or something insignificant

Should be a guaranteed £1m jackpot for £2 play, alot will just play euromillions instead then that jackpot will go up and normal lottery will come down

This is so me

There will also be a 20K raffle like with Euromillions. The Jackpot will only rise by an average of a Million.

I think its a bit of joke that its a 100% price hike.

Not too bothered that the boss earns £1 million, he's legally responsible for 1,000's of staff and around 1.8 Billion goes to charity.

I play online every week. Have been for ages. Think I've won 3 x £10. Must have cost me a fortune. I just think you've got to be in it to win it. We all think about what we would buy if we won, but do these people ACTUALLY play it?

In the last 10 days I've bought three scratchcards (£1 each ones) and won on all three (£11 total). I'm on a roll!!!

Guy on the radio yesterday said it would increase your chances of winning.

I bet it's still 14 million to one chance.
