National Lottery Lotto and Thunderball winning numbers for Wednesday, June 10

You could win a £2m jackpot tonight as the National Lottery Lotto draw is made for the first time since a major change to the format was announced.

From tonight (Wednesday, June 10) players will have two chances to win from a single line of numbers. Each line will be entered into two draws, with two sets of six main balls and a bonus ball drawn using two separate machines.

A player could win in round one, round two, or both rounds, from a single Lotto line. The price will stay the same at £2 a line, and there will still be 59 balls. The games will also still take place on Wednesdays and Saturdays, starting from tonight.

National Lottery operator Allwyn says the chance of winning any prize will improve from one in 9.3 to one in 4.9, while the number of Lotto millionaires is expected to double from around 140 a year to around 345.

A life-changing jackpot of £5m could be won by one lucky person in tonight’s National Lottery Lotto draw.

It costs £2 per play. As well as being in with a chance of winning serious cash, playing the Lotto also helps raise around £30m each week for good causes across the UK.

Since its first draw on November 19, 1994, the UK National Lottery has distributed funds far beyond its winners. Around half of all ticket sales go towards prizes, while 28% supports good causes. The remainder is split between government duty (12%), retailers (5%), and the operator (5%).

The Thunderball will also be drawn tonight, offering a top prize of £500,000 – another shot at a big payout. We’ll have all the results as they come in below.

Players will have until 7.30pm to enter. Tickets can be purchased via the National Lottery website or at retailers across the UK.

The Lotto draw will take place at around 8pm, with the Thunderball results being drawn at around 8.15pm.
