Ireland has a new millionaire as punter scoops seven-figure Daily Million prize
Hours after an Irish punter claimed the top prize of €500,000 in Friday night's EuroMillions Plus draw, a lucky Lotto player has scooped an even bigger reward in Saturday's Daily Million draw. The hunt is now for the holder of the lucky ticket, who will claim a whopping €1 million after matching all six numbers in Saturday's draw. The winning numbers were 2, 9, 12, 16, 28 and 29 and the bonus number was 5, with over 900 players also winning prizes ranging from €3 to €500. The lucky winner now has 90 days to claim their prize from Lotto chiefs, before they turn the winnings over to promote the National Lottery, which in turn will increase the funds raised for Good Causes. If you're holding the winning ticket, be sure to contact the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email claims@ to arrange the collection of your prize. Saturday's Daily Million win means that three people have won amounts totalling €2 million from the National Lottery in the space of five days, with two consecutive winners of the top prize of €500,000 in the EuroMillions Plus draws on Tuesday and Friday night. Both winning tickets, the National Lottery revealed, were sold in Dublin. And it could get even better for Irish punters next week, with a €250 million jackpot - the highest it can possibly be - rolling over to next Tuesday's EuroMillions draw after it went unclaimed on Friday night. Under EuroMillions community games rules, the jackpot can go no higher than the €250 million that has been in place for the last three draws but that jackpot can only remain capped for five successive draws. If there is still no jackpot winner in the fifth draw then the full amount - the €250 Million and any excess Jackpot value - flows down to the next prize tier that there is/are a winner(s) and so it must be won. Such a situation may come into play if there is no jackpot winner in the draw next Tuesday (June 17) and next Friday (June 20) so keep your eyes peeled. The National Lottery has reminded players that tickets for Tuesday night's draw can be purchased in-store, through the National Lottery app or at ahead of the 7.30pm cut-off time.
