There was no winner of the Daily Million Plus top prize of €500,000.

Meanwhile, a Kildare EuroMillions player landed a tasty €112,963 prize from Tuesday night’s draw.

The lucky online player was just one number short of scooping the €144 million EuroMillions jackpot.

The punter matched five numbers and one lucky star number, meaning that they were one lucky star number (from 1-12) short of winning the mega jackpot.

The winning numbers from last night’s EuroMillions draw were: 12, 16, 23, 33, 41 and the Lucky Stars were: 08 and 10.

A spokesman for the National Lottery said: “This player from Co. Kildare came agonisingly close to winning last night’s €144 million EuroMillions jackpot.

“We are encouraging all our online EuroMillions players who live in Kildare to check their accounts to see if they have won this €112,963 prize.”
