A jackpot usually rolls over and grows from drawing to drawing until someone wins it. A fixed top prize stays at the same advertised amount every draw. This page tracks both so you can compare the biggest prizes side by side.

Advertised jackpots are estimates set by the lottery operator before each drawing, based on expected ticket sales and any amount rolled over from previous draws. The final posted amount can change close to the drawing cutoff, so confirm with the official source if you are buying near a deadline.

Jackpot and top-prize values refresh whenever prize-tracking data updates, typically after each drawing. The 12-month history reflects tracked drawings only and is not a complete record of every jackpot in the game's history.
