The Super 5 jackpot rose to €1 million today after no one guessed the five numbers drawn this evening.
The last time somebody guessed the five winning numbers was on June 3 when two winners took €60,000 each. Today's jackpot was €850,000 but the record was reached two years ago on December 12 when the Super 5 hit 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 that the jackpot keeps increasing week after week if nobody guesses the five numbers.
Today's numbers were 35 3 41 37 12
There were 97 punters who guessed four numbers, each winning €1,212.75 while 3,243 guessed three numbers and will pocket €42.32 per ticket
