Last night’s lottery results produced just two millionaires from the three major world lottery draws. The UK National Lottery had two jackpot winners while the Irish Lottery and the US Powerball Lottery both rolled over, meaning that Saturday’s estimated Powerball jackpot has climbed to $170 million and is definitely worth buying online lotto tickets for.

Last night the UK National Lottery had a £2.8 million jackpot up for grabs following the three jackpot winners taking down the £4.4 million jackpot on Saturday. Last night just two lucky ticket holders managed to match all six main lottery numbers to take home £1,398,697 each for their £1 stakes. The winning lottery numbers from last night’s UK National Lottery draw are; 15, 23, 24, 34, 36 and 47 with the Bonus Ball being drawn as 44.

The Irish Lottery jackpot was also won on Saturday which meant that last night’s jackpot stood at the €2 million reseeding mark but unlike the UK National Lottery, the Irish Lottery jackpot rolled over as no ticket holders managed to match all six main lottery numbers. Once again no ticket holders managed to match five main lottery numbers plus the Bonus Ball either. This week’s Wednesday night Irish Lottery numbers are; 2, 16, 20, 24, 26 and 38 with the Bonus Ball being drawn as 23.

The US Powerball Lottery jackpot hasn’t been won since Missouri resident, Chris Shaw, won the $258.5 million jackpot back in April, which means that the jackpot has climbed all the way up to $170 million again. There were no jackpot winners in last night’s draw but 7 lucky ticket holders did manage to match five main lottery numbers without the Powerball to each win $200,000. Last night’s US Powerball Lottery numbers are; 2, 7, 29, 55 and 58 with the Powerball being drawn as 27.
