National Lottery

I know there are mixed views on here,especially since the increase in cost of playing,but for those of you that might not be aware,and only play now and again,then this Saturday is a must !

The jackpot is estimated at 58.7m and has got to be won this Saturday,meaning (I think) if you don't match 6 you could win it by getting 5 plus bonus

Come on Blues get one bought !!!

Unwinnable now since they increased the numbers...hence why its not been won since November.

Only this. For people who have been playing it years they will just be using numbers 1-49.

I'm certain they were telling people the jackpot HAD to be won on last night and now its Saturday?

Once it reaches 50m or just over,it rolls one more time apparently,last nite was 52.9m so gotta go Saturday

Now Im no Carol Vordeman, or indeed Rachel Riley. But how can they say it HAS to be won this week? Someone has to have the right combination of numbers, which since they have changed it is very rarely going to happen. Its a swizz. Its bollocks

No you don't have to match all 6,it could be won with 5 and bonus or even 5 !!! Still a swizz like,but worth £2 of anyones money

On this image there are 532 squares
To put into perspective what the odds are of drawing the six numbers to win the prize outright
If you placed 84,694 sheets of this paper on the ground, each square represents a combination of numbers that could be drawn

The odds for five and the bonus ball, would be over 14,000 sheets

Another way of looking at it is that the egg that was fertilised to produce you was a one in 40 million chance and that happened

Someone has to win it.

It's like having a 1 in 11.5 million chance of being attacked by a shark. It's not impossible, some unlucky sod has to be the 1.
