The jackpot needs all five numbers and both Lucky Stars. Five numbers and one star, the second prize, comes 1 in 6,991,908. The format has been the same since September 2016, when the Lucky Star pool grew from 11 to 12 and the jackpot became harder.

The smallest prize, two numbers without a star, is also the most common: 1 in 21.9.
