7/8/11

THE biggest ever UK Lotto jackpot of £166million went unclaimed last night but two Brits netted £3.3million with the second prize.

The EuroMillions top prize will now rollover for a 14th time - with £166million still up for grabs on Tuesday.

The jackpot has reached its limit, so ticket sales will fund bigger lower tier prizes.

Last night's two winning Brits benefited from that policy, when they were among six people who matched five numbers and one lucky star.

The numbers were 12, 13, 23, 40 and 49, Lucky Stars 7 and 10.

Punters were buying 900 tickets a second yesterday in the hope of landing the big win - and becoming the country's 418th richest person.

The biggest UK Lotto win is £113million, by an anonymous EuroMillions punter last October. [Source: thesun.co.uk]
