    How is this a rip off?

    A rip off would be if they said they were going to give you 100,000 euro for match 5 and the bonus and only gave you 2,500 euro.

    Do it in the bookies if you want better odds for match 5.

    Yeah, a total rip-off.

    For €3 you can win €2,500. A terrible return on your money.

    Shut up moaning. If you won't like the lotto, then don't play it.

    On entertainment.ie you can enter your numbers and see how much you have won throughout the years with them and how much it would have cost you aswell!!!

    From above link:

    If you had played these numbers in one panel every lottery draw since 2003, you would have spent €1,396 and won at least €1,394.

    A potential loss of €2

    Pointless thread, its like any gamble, its a waste of money if you loose but its fantastic if you win.

    Nobody forces anyone to do it and some people hate it and some people don't, since the lotto is a scam I'd like to mention all forms of betting on anything are scams to :)
