Saturday's Lotto Draw Boasts £11 Million Jackpot
Last Updated: Friday 12th September 2014, 11:29
The largest top prize won this year is a huge £13.4 million and was won on Saturday 4th January 2014 by a total of 23 ticket holders. The large number of jackpot winners was due to the fact that the top prize had rolled over a total of four times and, as Lotto rules state that the jackpot can only roll over a maximum of four times before it must be won, the top-tier prize rolled down and was shared between those who matched five main numbers plus the Bonus Ball because no player matched all six main numbers drawn on the night.
Prior to this, the last time there was an eight-figure Lotto jackpot up for grabs was back in August of last year when the top-tier prize reached £12.4 million. The draw saw four ticket holders match all six main numbers drawn to share the jackpot prize, with each winner taking home just over £3.1 million. One of the winning tickets was purchased online by a player who was identified only as Mrs C from Devon. No further information was released about Mrs C as she collected her winnings anonymously.
