A Waterford lotto player is waking up €1 million richer today!
They came out on top in last night's Lotto Plus 1 Draw.
The winning numbers were 3, 10, 16, 23, 25, 40, and the bonus number was 17.
It comes as a player in neighbouring Kilkenny won the overall lotto jackpot of 8-point-5 million euro.
It's not yet known where either of these tickets were purchased.
Each of the biggest winners from Saturday night’s draw are advised to sign the back of their tickets and to keep them safe. The three players from Kilkenny, Waterford and Dublin should make contact with the National Lottery prize claims team on 1800 666 222 or email [email protected] and arrangements will be made for them to claim their prizes.
A National Lottery spokesperson said: “This truly has been a life-changing weekend for not one but two Lotto players in neighbouring counties who have both now become Ireland’s newest Lotto millionaires. A Kilkenny player has taken the title of fourth Lotto jackpot winner of the year after last night’s massive €8,508,720 win while a Waterford player won the top prize of €1 million in the Lotto Plus 1 draw. Both wins have meant that overnight, we have seen the total number of National Lottery millionaires for 2022 soar to an incredible total of 18.”
“We are advising all of our players in Kilkenny and Waterford to check their tickets carefully today as two players now have tickets worth the life-changing amounts of €8,508,720 and €1 million. And of course, they’re not the only two players who won big last night! A Dublin player matched five numbers and the bonus in the main draw to win €107,156. If you purchased your ticket on Friday 6th May at Tesco Park Point in Dun Laoghaire, we are advising you to check your ticket as soon as possible.”
