National Lottery results: Prizes boosted for all winners | UK | News

No National Lottery players became multi-millionaires tonight as no one won the £15 million jackpot. The National Lottery said no one was seen matching the six winning numbers in the Christmas Eve draw.

However, this meant good news for thousands of players who would see the increased cash prize. This was because tonight was the Must Win Lotto draw. This means that a ‘roll down’ must occur as no one wins the jackpot.

As a result, the £15 million jackpot will be split and split between players who match two or more of the main numbers.

The three players receiving ‘Match 5 + bonus’ will receive £1,063,399 instead of the planned £1 million.

What’s more, the 119 people who match five drawn numbers will receive a huge boost, with each person receiving £4,413 instead of £1,750.

7,807 ‘match 4’ winners will receive a rolling prize of £196 instead of £140.

Thousands of winners who match three numbers tonight will receive £59 each instead of £30, with ‘match 2’ winners receiving £5 on top of the expected free lotto chance.

The winning numbers in the National Lottery Lotto this evening are: 12, 15, 16, 35, 38, 48.

Bonus Ball is 49.

Tonight’s guaranteed jackpot is £15 million.

Tonight’s National Lottery Thunderball winning numbers are: 06, 10, 11, 29, 33.

It is Thunderball 09.
