Thunderball is a beloved lottery in the UK. It has four draws per week and the top prize winner doesn’t have to share his winning with anyone. We can have ten tickets with the combination worthy of a jackpot prize and each of them will receive £500k in cash. Aside from that, other Thunderball prizes are worth your time as well. As a cheery on the top, one combination costs just £1. With all of that being said, it’s not a surprise that Thunderball results are highly sought after. That is why we are bringing them to you in the best possible and the most precise form. Let’s start with the overview.
National Lottery’s Thunderball – Winning Numbers
The draw takes place every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. The goal for every player is to match five main numbers (between 1 and 39) and one additional (between 1 and 14) called “Thunderball”. Those that manage to match five numbers and the additional one, win the main prize. But don’t worry, besides the jackpot, there are eight other prize tiers. Of course, each of them brings different amounts to the lucky winner, but we’ll talk more about that when we get to a detailed prize breakdown.
Now that we shared basic information with you, it’s finally time to get to the good stuff. Let’s view the latest Thunderball results, the one that we had in Christmas week. All the results that you’ll see here including the prizes have been officially confirmed by the National Lottery. You can be sure that they are legit and precise.
Results for Tuesday 20th December
We are starting with the 3194 draw of this lottery. The first one happened all the way back in 1999 so it doesn’t come as a surprise that we had more than three thousand draws until now. The winning thunderball combination in this one was: 1, 7, 10, 15, and 37 as the main numbers and 13 as a bonus one. None of the tickets had the right combination that would be worth the main prize, but here’s how the rest of the prizes were divided.
The second prize tier is the one in which the player has to match all five numbers but without the Thunderball. We had two winners here and each of them won £5k. The third prize requires the participants to pick the correct four numbers with the additional one. Seventeen players managed to do that and each of them won £250.
The rest of the prize tiers have fixed prizes as follows:
4th tier – £100
5th tier – £20
6th tier – £10
7th tier – £10
8th tier – £5
9th tier – £3
In total, this day brought us 81,661 winners and the total amount that was paid out to them was £469,208.
