Rollovers, Must Be Won
The jackpot can roll over up to 5 times. If it is still not won, the next draw is Must Be Won: if no line matches the top tier, the jackpot is shared down the tiers according to the operator's rules.
Whenever several tickets share the jackpot, the operator tops it up so each winning ticket receives at least £1,000,000, up to a £10,000,000 top-up budget.
