One lucky Irish Lotto player has scooped up a life changing quarter of a million euros prize in Wednesday’s draw.

The punter snapped up the top prize in the Lotto Plus Two draw, snapping up €250,000 after matching six numbers and the bonus. The winning ticket was sold in Dublin. The winning numbers for the draw were: 20, 23, 24, 31, 40, 46 and the bonus 11.

No one managed to win the main Lotto jackpot, worth €9,263,785, but tens of thousands of players still grabbed prizes. The winning numbers were: 3, 16, 24, 31, 32, 47 and the bonus 36.

There was also no winner of the Lotto Plus 1 top prize, worth €1 million, but again plenty of players bagged prizes. The winning numbers were: 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 25 and the bonus 20.

There were 68 winners of the Raffle Prize each receiving €500. The winning number was 5423.

Meanwhile, Lotto players are being urged to check their tickets after one lucky punter scooped a life-changing six-figure prize in Saturday night’s draw.

Despite the main Lotto jackpot going unclaimed, Saturday’s draw wasn’t a total loss with over 99,000 winners across the draws.

Among them was one main draw player who came agonisingly close to scooping the jackpot worth an eye-watering €8,879,233, matching five of the six winning numbers plus the bonus.

While the player may have missed out on the jaw-dropping sum, they still have plenty of reason to celebrate as they bagged the Match 5 + Bonus prize worth €195,118.

The winning numbers in the Saturday, February 7 draw were: 04, 05, 19, 21, 32, 35 and the bonus was 39.
