A Lotto player in Dublin woke up richer this morning after winning €55,439 in last night’s draw.
The player matched five numbers and the bonus after purchasing their speed dial ticket at Tesco, Artane Castle, Kilmore Road, Dublin 5.
The National Lottery has urged the winner to contact the prize claim team and arrangements will be made to claim their prize.
The winning numbers for Saturday’s Lotto draw were: 11, 17, 35, 39, 40, 46 and the bonus number was 4.
A spokesperson for The National Lottery said: “Last night’s draw proved to be a big one for Lotto players across the country.”
A Dublin player became the biggest winner of the night after matching five numbers and the bonus of winning a respectable €55,439, while 97 players shared an increased prize money thanks to the extra €1 million in the Lotto Plus Raffle- prize fund.
“Instead of receiving €500 like the typical prize for the Lotto Plus lottery, each of these winners will now claim €10,809 each.
“As there was no winner of the €4,367,050 jackpot on Saturday night, Wednesday’s Lotto jackpot is now estimated to be €4.8 million.”
