No winner of Wednesday’s €10.7 million Lotto jackpot as Dubliner comes agonisingly close to lifechanging prize
Saturday’s Lotto jackpot rolls on to an estimated €11.5 million
The National Lottery are asking Lotto players in Clontarf in Dublin 3 to check their Lotto tickets carefully today after a lucky Dubliner came to within just one number of winning Wednesday night’s €10,792,788 Lotto jackpot. The Dublin player matched five numbers and the bonus to win the €52,969 prize.
The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased on the day of the draw at the Spar store in Vernon Avenue in Clontarf, Dublin 3.
The winning numbers for last night’s (Saturday 7th August) Lotto draw were: 06, 18, 36, 41, 46, 47 and the bonus was 32.
The winning ticket holder is advised to sign the back of their ticket and to get in touch with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@lottery.ie and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prize.
With no winner of Wednesday night’s €9.7 million Lotto jackpot, Saturday’s (21st August) jackpot is now set to roll to an estimated €11.5 million. The current Lotto jackpot has been rolling since Wednesday 9th June and the next winner will become the 6th Lotto jackpot winner of 2021. Despite the massive jackpot prize on offer, a potential winner of Saturday night’s draw will only become the second largest jackpot winner of 2021 after a Kilkenny family scooped a €12.7 million Lotto prize last April.
