The British Lotto Draw

The main draw is a 6/49 game - that is, pick 6 numbers from a choice of 1 to 49. Six balls are then drawn, plus a bonus ball.

The U.K. lottery started as a Saturday only draw but there are now many additional games - UK Lotto Extra, HotPicks, Thunderball and Daily Play. The main Lotto draw remains the most interesting. There is also a wide range of scratch off lottery tickets produced under the name Lottery Instants.

Draw Name:	Type of Game:	Top Prize For:
Lotto	6 + Bonus Ball from 49	Match 6
Lotto Extra	6 from 49	Match 6
Thunderball	5 from 34 plus 1 from 14	Match 5 + 1
Daily Play	7 from 27	Match 7
Hot Picks	6 from 49	Match 4
