National Lottery reveal location of life-changing Lotto win as urgent appeal issued to players
The lucky punter was just one correct number away from winning the €6.6m jackpot, but they still managed to bag themselves a huge prize
Online Lotto players are being urged to check their accounts after one lucky punter won a life-changing prize in Saturday night's draw.
While there was no winner of Saturday's Lotto jackpot, worth €6,694,608, in total, over 104,000 players won prizes.
One Lotto player came agonisingly close to scooping the life-changing €6.6m jackpot after they matched five correct numbers plus the bonus, meaning they were just one number away from bagging the huge prize.
