e-lottery players win double the 4 ball amount!

The UK Lotto draw on Wednesday, 23rd July 2008, had a four-ball win amount of £104. However, one e-lottery syndicate matched four numbers, and each individual Member of that syndicate won £227.51!

If you’re wondering how each Member could have won more than double what a lone player won with the same number of balls matched, it’s simple…

Because of the way e-lottery formulates its syndicate numbers - giving each syndicate every possible number from 1-49 on one line or another - this syndicate had a FIVE-ball win on two of its lines, in addition to matching four main numbers on every single line.

In other words, this syndicate had two FIVE-ball wins of £3,390 each, and 42 four-ball wins of £104 each, totalling £11,148! So each Member received £227.51 as their share.

Congratulations to the Members of this syndicate - you did much better than the more than 11,000 other four-ball winners who bought their tickets from a retailer!
