About The National Lottery

The UK's National Lottery is currently run by Camelot. The first draw was made on UK National TV on Saturday 19 November 1994. (The company name - Camelot - explains the curious naming convention of the draw machines, i.e. Merlin, Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot etc).

The UK Lotto Draw

The main draw, called Lotto, 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 UK lottery started as a Saturday only draw but there are now many additional games - UK Lotto Extra, HotPicks, Thunderball and Daily Play. The main Saturday Lotto draw remains the most interesting. There are 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

Main UK Lottery Draw Prizes

Six balls are drawn plus a bonus ball. Prizes are awarded for:

Winning Combinations:	Winning Odds:
Jackpot - Match 6 numbers	1 in 13,983,816
Match 5 numbers Plus Bonus Ball	1 in 2,330,636
Match 5 numbers	1 in 55,492
Match 4 numbers	1 in 1,033
Match 3 numbers	1 in 57

The actual prize value depends on the number of tickets sold, and how many people match the same numbers. If two people match the six numbers drawn, they share the Lotto jackpot equally. (You can check the UK Lotto Results here).

Closed UK Syndicates
4.5 stars	eLottery Syndicate	The grandaddy of commercial syndicates, eLottery Syndicate was our firm favourite.
3 stars	UK Lottery Pools Group	One of the cheapest commercial lottery syndicates to access, with sensible options and low admin costs.

When joining a lottery syndicate always consider the game being played first. It's no good getting 50 times the chance of winning if you end up playing a game that's 100 times harder to win! The UK Lotto is a good game for playing in a syndicate.
