The second month of the year is at its end and it’s time to summarize the best from the Thunderball draw results. This game from the National Lottery has been around 1999, and since then it became one of the most popular lotteries in the United Kingdom. Those of you who are not familiar with it can find more information below. Let’s get going!
What is Thunderball?
It’s a lotto game with very simple rules (one of the reasons why players like it so much). The main goal for any player is to match six numbers. This has to be done by selecting five main numbers in a range from 1 to 39, plus the additional numbers, called “Thunderball” in a range from 1 to 14. A participant that manages to match all six numbers wins the jackpot.
The Jackpot prize is always fixed at the amount of £500k. The awesome thing about it is that winner doesn’t share the main prize with anyone. In other words, if 2, 3, or even more people match all five numbers plus the Thunderball, each of them would win the 500k. There’s no splitting of the prize between the winners.
Draws take place four times a week. Every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. This gives you plenty of opportunities to try and find the winning numbers. The price for each combination that you want to play is only £1.
Of course, the jackpot is not the only prize that you can win. Thunderball has a total of nine prize tiers so you have pretty decent odds to win at least one of the prizes. If you want to see the full prize breakdown for any of the recent draws, feel free to check out our page with the results.
National Lottery Thunderball Draw Results – The Best of February
It’s time to get down to business and view the latest Thunderball results, at least the summary of them. The date of the first result that we’ll check out is the 11th of February. That’s the first draw of the month in which someone managed to match all numbers (including Thunderball).
Combination of numbers 2, 4, 8, 20, 29, and 5 as the bonus one saw two of the players winning the main prize. Aside from them, there were also three winners of Thunderball prizes from the second tier. Each of them won £5k.
In total, the first draw in this overview had almost 177k players that won at least one of the prizes. The amount that was paid out to them stood at £2,029,413.00.
Next in line is February 25th and another round in which the main prize has been won. This time around the winning combination consisted of numbers 11, 17, 18, 20, 35, and the number 3 as Thunderball.
Only one player managed to match all the numbers this time, and the second tier had two winners. Almost 154k participants won something in this round, and almost 1.4 million has been paid out to them.
This draw concludes the list of the draws in which the jackpot has been won. The next couple of draws for which we’ll check the details were the best ones without the winner of the main prize.

The first draw on the second part of the list that took place on the 4th of February. Jackpot hasn’t been won, but nonetheless, almost £1 million has been paid out to the winners. What’s even more surprising is that second and tier tiers also didn’t have many winners. There was one lucky player that had a combination of 5+0 on the ticket and 36 of them matched the 4+1 combination. The numbers that were drawn were 5, 6, 15, 20, 34, and the number 9.
On the 18th of February, we had a draw that paid out more than 880k in prizes. Numbers 5, 11, 19, 34, 36, and 6 were the ones that came out of the lotto machine. One player won the second-tier prize, and 33 players won the third-tier prize. In total, there were more than 155k winners.
The last draw that we’ll process in this overview is one from the 22nd of February. More than 708k has been paid out to the 117,438 players that successfully predict that at least one of the numbers from this combination will be drawn. The combination in question was 3, 7, 14, 26, 29, and 5.
