First up, the winning Lotto numbers from Saturday night are: 13, 32, 33, 37, 38, and 50. The Bonus Ball for the evening was 02. If you’re wondering about the jackpot, it was a huge £15 million. That’s a lot of money!
But here’s a twist: nobody won the jackpot! That means nobody matched all six main numbers, so the £15 million will roll over. The jackpot for the next draw on Wednesday is estimated to be £2 million. That’s still a massive amount, so keep your fingers crossed!
Even though no one hit the jackpot, there were still some big winners. Two lucky ticket holders matched five out of the six main numbers plus the Bonus Ball. They each won a fantastic £1,127,504! Imagine what you could do with that kind of cash!
There were also 81 players who won £6,997 each by matching five of the six numbers. It’s pretty exciting to win that much money, isn’t it?
For those who played the Lotto HotPicks game, the top prize of £350,000 was not won either. This game is a bit different because you try to match all five numbers drawn. Four people matched four out of the five numbers and each of them took home £13,000.
In the Thunderball draw, the winning numbers were 10, 32, 34, 35, and 36. The Thunderball was 12. Sadly, no one matched all five numbers plus the Thunderball, so the top prize of £500,000 went unclaimed. But don’t worry—three people still managed to win £5,000 each by matching five numbers, and 31 players won £250 each for matching four numbers plus the Thunderball.
Let’s talk about the lucky winners for a moment. Andy Carter, who is a senior adviser for winners at The National Lottery, shared some exciting news. He said, “Amazing news, there has been a big jackpot rolldown in tonight’s special £15 million Lotto ‘Must Be Won’ draw which has resulted in two new millionaires being created, after two lucky ticket-holders matched five main numbers and the bonus ball to win £1.1 million.”
So, even though the big jackpot was missed, two new millionaires were made! That’s pretty awesome, don’t you think? Imagine getting that phone call saying you’ve just won over a million pounds!
