National Lottery published lotto results today for a £2M draw with two separate rounds. Each ticket went into both rounds automatically, and the winning numbers were posted as they came in.
Round 1 produced 13, 33, 35, 40, 43 and 54, with Bonus Ball 56. Round 2 produced 5, 8, 26, 33, 39 and 42, with Bonus Ball 54.
National Lottery Lotto two rounds
As of last month, Every Lotto draw comprises two separate rounds, with players buying a £2 ticket in the same way as before. The format gives every line two chances to win, since one ticket is entered into both draws automatically.
The prize ladder is straightforward. Matching six numbers in either draw wins a share of tonight's £2M jackpot. Matching five numbers plus a bonus ball pays £1m, while five main numbers pays £1,000. Matching two or more numbers from a Lotto line also wins some cash.
Bonus Ball and £2M jackpot
The complication is simple: the numbers are out, but the draw itself does not say whether any ticket matched all six numbers in Round 1 or Round 2. That leaves the £2M jackpot open across both sets, even though both Bonus Balls have already been drawn.
For players checking slips, the practical step is to compare the same ticket against both rounds rather than only one. The live format matters because a single entry now carries two separate shots at the top prize, and the two sets of winning numbers were 13, 33, 35, 40, 43 and 54, then 5, 8, 26, 33, 39 and 42.
Thunderball at 8:15pm
Thunderball follows shortly after 8:15pm, so the evening's lottery sequence is not finished yet. For anyone still watching the live draw, the remaining update comes after the two Lotto rounds, not before them.
