Brits have been urged to check their Lotto tickets after another balance busting National Lottery draw.
The Lotto draw held an eye-watering £5.4million double rollover jackpot for one lucky player who picks their numbers correctly. But Lottery organisers Camelot confirmed there were no winners for Wednesday's jackpot, and the sum will roll over.
There are, however, 76 winners matching 5 of 6 winners able to claim £1,750 each. There were no winners for tonight's main Thunderball prize, either.
Lotto draws take place every Wednesday and Saturday. The EuroMillions also takes place every Tuesday and Friday, and you can also play the Set For Life which gives players a chance to get their hands on £10,000 every month for 30 years.

Two neighbours scooped £1million playing the People’s Postcode Lottery last week - and their local charity has won £50,000 as a result.
The two residents of Saltcoats, North Ayrshire, won the weekly Millionaire Street prize, which is worth £250,000. One lucky local raked in £750,000 after playing with three tickets and the other walked away with a £250,000 from a single ticket.

One woman was left furious after she excitedly opened a package she'd received from the Postcode Lottery - only to realise that the contents were totally 'unacceptable'.
Paige Irklis said she would "like to have a word with Postcode Lottery" about something that'd happened to her that she didn't think was fair, writing in the caption that the situation had caused "emotional damage." Read more here.

If you're luck is in, then you simply ring the number on the back of your ticket to make your claim.
That call will get through to a call centre where staff are dedicated to dealing with Lottery related matters. It's not just winners - the staff there also take calls from newsagents who want to order more scratch cards or whose Lottery ticket dispenser isn't working, that kind of thing.
So, it's a bit of a lottery for them too regarding who'll be on the other end of the line.
The UK's most lottery-obsessed cities have been revealed in a new study - and the results are somewhat surprising.
A new study, conducted by bingo industry experts at BestNewBingoSites, analysed Google search data to establish which UK cities are the most hopeful for winning the lottery. The research looked at Google searches from each city, using a list of 114 popular search terms people tend to use when wanting to win the lottery.
Popular search terms ranging from "how to win the lottery" to "six lucky numbers to win the lottery" were used as part of the study - and Sunderland came out on top.
Tonight's Thunderball draw has also taken place.
Brits could be in with a chance of winning a cool £500,000 jackpot tonight. The winning numbers are 5, 7, 15, 26 and 37, while the Thunderball itself is 02.
The National Lottery draw for Wednesday January 31 has just taken place.
The winning numbers are: 05, 10, 11, 22, 27 and 54 and the bonus ball is 55.
While many of us dream about winning big on the lottery, for some it has been more of a curse than a blessing.
The tragedy follows a clear pattern - the joy of winning is replaced by despair, as they either blow through a fortune, or their personal lives become unbelievably stressful. Adrian and Gillian Bayford won a incredible £148million on the lottery in 2012, but split less than 18 months later, partly attributing the stress of their win on the end of the relationship.
Read about them and other winners for whom the windfall was not the be all and end all here.

The Lotto is one of several games run by the National Lottery where players can enter and pick a selection of numbers. If the numbers match those drawn at random, the winner can claim a jackpot.
You don't have to match all six numbers, however. Even players with just two or three matching numbers can claim a sum. It costs £2 per play and you have to pick six numbers between 1 and 59.
The winnings are transferred electronically within 48 hours but officials recommend it doesn't go into a normal high street savings account.
Instead they suggest winners open a a private account (most of the big banks have teams which deal only with Lottery winners and the very wealthy) which is shielded from the knowledge of ordinary branch staff.
That way no one can leak news of a person's win.
Wednesday's Lotto numbers will be drawn at 8pm, and we'll announce the numbers as the come through.
The Thunderball will then be announced shortly after at 8.15pm.
