Your chance to become a millionaire could be in sight after nobody guessed the correct numbers of the Super 5 lottery yesterday to see next week's jackpot hit €1 million.

The last time the five winning numbers were guessed was on June 3 when two winners pocketed €60,000 each. Yesterday's top prize was €850,000. The record was reached two years ago, on December 12, when the sum ballooned to just over €1.3 million.

The capping on the upper limit that could be won was removed when the Lotteries Department was privatised, which means the jackpot will keep increasing week after week until the five numbers are guessed.

Yesterday's numbers were 35, 3, 41, 37, and 12. There were 97 punters who guessed four numbers, each winning €1,212.75, while 3,243 guessed three numbers and pocketed €42.32 per ticket.
