    The accountants must be loving this, bigger prizes attract more entrants and they have been able to offer over £110,000  a day since last Tuesday and if it's won today the prize will only have cost them the equivalent of less than £14,500 a day

    Oh well, all the more for those of us who are actually serious about trying to win a life altering sum of money for free! Every day we increase our chances with each new entry, so fingers crossed for the real compers who actually sit down and listen for their phones at 3pm (and/or 4pm) (and/or every single minute from 9am to 6pm if you live in Scotland) (hey, what else should I be doing, talking to the wife???)

    You probably don't increase your overall chances of winning as the number of daily entries will almost certainly rise as the prize grows so slightly reducing the overall chances of each individual entry.

    yes and they only need to increment the prize by £1k each day for it to make more money
