Everyone was keen to hear the Euromillions results on Friday evening, but then on Saturday there was even more excitement as the UK Lotto also boasted a rollover draw. The jackpot reached over £7 million and unlike the Euromillions, which rolled, three shared the UK Lotto, creating a bunch of millionaires for the weekend! Here’s a breakdown of last night’s Lotto results, take a look and see if you were lucky!
Arthur was the draw machine chosen for last night’s draw, not seen for two weeks and it was set of balls number 7 that proved lucky for lottery players. It certainly was lucky too, with lots of big winners in the draw, including the three jackpot winners!
Each of the jackpot winners walk away with over £2.4 million from the draw, and second prize winners fared very well too. While there were three jackpot winners, just five players matched the second tier prize, giving each of them a very generous £278,407.
In total, over 500,000 players won a prize in last night’s UK Lotto rollover, and that equated to over £16 million paid out in prize money from the draw so if you haven’t already, you need to check the lottery results now to see if you’re a big winner!
Next up is Tuesday’s Euromillions rollover, and that’s worth a staggering £166 million, then it’s the turn of the UK Lotto on Wednesday evening and the estimated jackpot for that draw is £2.4 million! Do you have your lottery tickets at the ready?
