Probability per line under the current rules, calculated exactly. The prize for a tier is the share of stakes allocated to that tier divided by the number of winners; for jackpot tiers, the amount is rolled over to the next draw if nobody wins.

Multiple lines

With n different lines, the jackpot chance is multiplied by exactly n (the lines are mutually exclusive).
