UK National Lottery rollover must be won

04/11/2010 10:04:11

The midweek UK Lotto rollover jackpot has rolled over again but this time the UK National Lottery rollover must be won as National Lottery rules state that the lottery can only roll for a maximum of three times. This Saturday’s draw will be a triple rollover, which means that the jackpot must be won, no matter what. The predicament improves the chances of National Lottery players greatly, as if no one wins the jackpot then it rolls down to the next division and with an estimated must-win jackpot of £18 million, it’s sure to create world lottery interest too!

Last night’s jackpot reached £11.2 million, almost a million over estimated and the winning numbers are 13 – 21 – 28 – 37 – 39 – 45, bonus ball 6, which no one managed to match to win the jackpot. That means that Saturday night’s UK National Lottery jackpot is worth an estimated £18.1 million (although judging by last night that could get higher) and as it’s a triple lottery rollover, it must be won.

It means that even if you don’t match all six winning numbers, you could win a share of the jackpot as the must-win prize may roll down to the next division. When you consider that odds of matching six balls are one in almost 14 million, and odds of matching five and the bonus are one in 2 million, it’s easy to see how this must-win rollover now has greatly improved odds.

You could of course improve your chances even more by getting together with a few friends and buying lottery tickets as a syndicate, that way you get even more buying power and the chance to share your good fortune with friends!
