For the purposes of this chart the bonus ball numbers have not been included.
January produced nineteen jackpot winners but February saw just fifteen. The most noticeable thing of all was the fact that every single week had at least one winner, with no rollover draws at all.
The largest jackpot for the month went to a single winner on the 20th, with a huge sum of £4,856,214. The smallest slice was still quite good though, coming in at £733,644 and going to five people on the 6th of the month.
The biggest and smallest five plus bonus amounts occurred on different dates as well. For example the largest share was on the 20th with a huge £114,939 going to thirteen lucky winners. The smallest share came in at £27,528 on the 6th, going to forty one winners in total.
The number three had a good run this month too, with four appearances out of a total of eight. And the first two draws didn’t see any numbers in the thirties or up either.

As you can see we had a huge rollover jackpot of well over a hundred million pounds on the 12th of the month. And as you may know one of the two lucky winners resides in the UK, so big congratulations to them for picking up over £56 million pounds for their ticket.
The next two draws after that were both rollovers once more, so that means March will kick off with another good sized rollover amount up for grabs. We’ll be back next month as always to see whether anyone picked it up.
