Lotto

Noticed that last nights Lotto jackpot (24 million) was shared out
with those getting 5 number plus bonus, rtaher than rolling over to the Saturday.
I thought the new lotto rules allowed unlimited roll overs ?

Just curious

Maybe my memory fails me , but I'm sure a few months ago the jackpot hit 30 million plus ?

Must be a recent rule change then.
The lotto jackpot hit 60 million at one point.

Guess they have decided to limit the size of jackpots again for some reason.
