Can someone explain this, on page 10 in yesterdays Daily Mail was an advert from the National Lottery, stating that this Fridays draw jackpot would be £85 million, how did they know that the Tuesday draw would not result in a winner

They consulted Diane Abbott.

They didn't put the number 4 in the hat and they know everyone puts 4 on their ticket.

Hi Mick,I know this Ex-Footballer ITK,he was in the Pub and we were talking about the EURO Lottery.
This is what he told me.!!!

What is a Superdraw?

A Superdraw is a EuroMillions draw which offers a fantastic guaranteed jackpot. The top prize is increased to match up to the advertised amount, regardless of whether anyone won in the previous draw. On Friday 30th June, the jackpot will be worth €100 million.

So the jackpot could still have been won in the preceding draw?

Of course. If the jackpot had been won in Tuesday night’s draw, the top prize for Friday night would still have stood at €100 million. As it turned out, nobody landed the jackpot on Tuesday.

How can a jackpot be guaranteed?

The jackpot funds for a Superdraw are subsidised by the EuroMillions Booster Fund. This is a special reserve pot which receives 4.8% of the Common Prize Fund from each regular EuroMillions draw. A Booster Fund is necessary to make sure that there is always enough money to meet the minimum EuroMillions jackpot of €17 million. When there are surplus funds, it means that EuroMillions can organise big events such as Superdraws or European Millionaire Maker games.

I used to work in the media.... what happens is that Camelot reserve space for an advert with the Daily Mail prior to Wednesdays edition ... lets say on the Monday or Tuesday and supply copy to the Mails advertising dept along the lines of Friday's draw will be an estimated 85 million and a backup one that Fridays jackpot will be an estimated 12 million.
If no-one wins on the Tuesday night the advert runs in Wednesdays edition ... if it is won the ad is pulled and replaced with 12 million one or if Camelot do not want to run one at all a sub ad is placed that was on standby by another client.
Anyway I will be buying me 10 pounds worth for Friday
