    Always seems strange to me, the odds remain at 116,531,800 to one for winning the jackpot regardless of it's size yet people buy more tickets as it gets bigger as if the £12,000,000 starting jackpot is not enough for them.
    It's slightly different when the jackpot cap is reached as that adds millions to the second prize where the odds are "only" 6,473,989 to one.

    They used to be 1 in 76,275,360 but they jumped up to 1 in 116,531,800 when they increased the number of "star" balls.

    (When they increased the number of balls in the Thunderball draw the jackpot odds on that more than doubled from 3,895,584 to 8,060,598 to 1)
