    So...What happens when you have Four straight ordinary numbers ( no bonus number ) on the main Lotto Jackpot? Cuz the main website is telling me I'm a winner but it's blank where it tells me what I won?:confused:

    Oh you don't get anything for that.

    Send the ticket on to me and I'll bin it for you. Better luck next time!

    4 numbers is usually something like 38 euro, so don't ring the boss and tell him to go **** himself just yet man.

    (Also, please stop saying confused.com like that. Make it one of your new years resolutions.)

    50 or 60 squids or something I think.

    You've won money. Keep the ticket and cash it in your nearest newsagent tomorrow. It will pay for the papers and minor groceries, not for a Caribbean cruise.

    Have to wait and see what the individual prize pools are... you could get 30 to 50 quid, or maybe more, depending.
    Ages since I did the lotto...got 4 numbers once...better than getting five IMO (even if it's worth a few hundred) because you'd always have that one missing number niggling at you and the "what ifs"...

    I was genuinely happy to hear of your windfall.......then you had to go and anger me with that phrase.:(

    Is that not for the 3 and bonus number?

    Right kick in the nuts that prize is...

    I had a look at the site. It says 3 straight numbers in lotto plus gets you scratchcard. Still doesnt say what 4 numbers is but as you say thats because of the prize pool.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    Aye you're right...3 + bonus might be small cash prize - tenner or that.

    So where do we send the begging letters to?

    On a different note, I'm surprised boards doesn't have it's own lottery syndicate yet.

    Of course it is.
    We get to take all the money, make dodgy investments, lose most of it apart from the bit we put aside for our own bonuses, and laugh all the way back to work.
    Then retire with all your money in the form of a pension.
