After all the excitement of Friday’s Euromillions rollover jackpot, players still had the UK Lotto rollover on Saturday to look forward to. The jackpot estimate was £7 million, and in the event it reached £6.99 million and two shared the Lotto rollover, each netting almost £3.5 million. If you haven’t already checked your numbers, then it’s time to look at the Lotto results and here’s the news of all the winners from the draw.
It was a rollover draw, and as such the prizes were high. In all over £15 million was paid out to prize winners from the Lotto draw, with almost £7 million of that going on the jackpot. It was Guinevere that proved lucky as the lottery machine of choice this week, used in seven of the last nine draws, but it was set of balls number 6 used last night and that hasn’t been seen since mid April.
In addition to the two jackpot winners, who each scooped almost £3.5 million, another eight lottery players matched five main balls and the bonus, and each of those players win almost £190,000.
The next Lotto draw will be held on Wednesday evening, and after the double win last night the jackpot for that draw will be an estimated £2.4 million. Of course before that is the Lottery that is proving not so easy to win. On Tuesday evening, the twelve times rollover jackpot from the Euromillions Lottery goes up for grabs and that’s worth over £150 million! So whatever you do this week about the Lotto, don’t forget your tickets for the Euromillions Lottery draw!
