No players matched five out of the six primary numbers along with the bonus ball to claim a million pounds prize. Similarly, the Lotto HotPicks produced no winners as no entrants managed to match the required five out of five numbers, which are the same as for the Lotto.
In the Thunderball draw, the £500,000 jackpot went without a winner.
Looking ahead, the estimated jackpot for Wednesday’s Lotto draw is around £2 million, as stated by Allwyn.
