UK Lotto
04 – 08 – 10 – 21 – 41 – 49 Bonus Ball: 28
There was just one ticket that matched all six main numbers in the UK Lotto game last night, so its lucky owner can now claim the jackpot prize, which was worth £4,386,276. Another seven tickets won £42,645 each by matching five main numbers as well as the Bonus Ball, and 249 tickets matched five main numbers only to land a third tier prize of £1,017 each. Over 292,000 entries won £89 or £25 each by matching five or four main numbers, respectively, and the Lotto Raffle game created 50 winners of £20,000 each. There will now be a brand new jackpot of around £2 million for players to pursue in the next game on Wednesday.
Irish Lottery
03 – 04 – 22 – 33 – 37 – 45 Bonus Ball: 15
The Irish Lotto jackpot was worth €2,497,030 last night, and it will be worth even more in the next game after no ticket proved able to match all six of the main numbers. A single ticket won a second tier prize of €25,000 by matching five main numbers plus the Bonus Ball number, and the third tier saw 31 tickets win €1,869 each by matching five main numbers only. There were over 29,000 tickets that won smaller prizes by matching fewer numbers, and the jackpot for the next draw on Wednesday is expected to be worth around €3 million.
Powerball
03 – 13 – 17 – 42 – 52 Powerball: 24
An advertised jackpot of $70 million awaited any Saturday night lottery player who could match all five main numbers plus the Powerball this week, but none of the participants proved able to do that. On a brighter note, there were two tickets that matched the five main numbers only, giving each of their owners the life-changing consolation prize of $1 million. A third tier prize worth $10,000 was won by each of 15 tickets that matched four main numbers plus the Powerball, and the total number of winning entries exceeded 314,000. The jackpot in the next Powerball game will be worth an estimated $80 million.
