One winner scoops the Lotto

Last Updated: Sunday 17th July 2011, 19:15

The relatively sedate UK Lotto draw is just what we need in between all this Euromillions Lottery fever and it was just what one lucky player needed as they matched all the winning numbers to scoop the UK Lotto midweek jackpot. Just one winner scooped the Lotto last night matching all the winning numbers in the lottery results and that player is now an instant Lotto millionaire, collecting £2,515,874.

Guinevere is proving the hot Lotto draw machine right now, chosen for the last four draws, and it was set of balls number 4 that proved lucky for lottery players last night, last seen a month ago.

In all, £7.2 million was paid out to British Lottery players in last night’s UK Lotto draw, that’s including the £2.5 million jackpot. Just four players matched the second tier prize and they win £193,528 for matching five main balls and the bonus. Match five players collected over £2,000 in what was a profitable night for lottery players.

The next UK Lotto draw will be held on Saturday evening and the estimated jackpot for that draw is £4.5 million. Of course before that is the Euromillions draw and that draw is now boasting a nine-figure jackpot, estimated at £105 million!
