New Multi-Round Format
The payout follows a recently introduced format using two separate draw machines, allowing players to win from a single line across multiple rounds.
Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at Allwyn, said: “What a night for Lotto players.
One lucky ticket holder has won a life-changing £9.2M 'Must Be Won' jackpot in Round 2 of tonight's draw.”
Carter added: “This is exactly what the new Lotto is designed to do. It gives players more chances to win and creates more big, unforgettable moments like this.”
The weekend draw also produced smaller tier prizes, including 11 Lotto HotPicks winners who each received £6,500.

He also noted that every ticket helps raise around £33 million a week for community projects across the UK.
