National Lottery changes: All you need to know about picking those lucky millionaire numbers ...

Have you got a lucky Lotto line you’ve been putting on for years?

Well... things are about to change.

Here’s a quick guide to what will be changing from October 8:

* From the draw on Saturday, October 10 onwards there will be extra numbers to pick from - You can choose from 1 all the way to 59, rather than 1 to 49.

This is designed to create “bigger rolling jackpots” where there is “more to play for”.

* The jackpot odds of matching all six numbers on the current Lotto are 1 in 13,983,816. When the new numbers are introduced this will jump to 1 in 45,057,474.

* A new ‘Millionaire Raffle’ will guarantee a £1 million prize in every draw. A further 20 people will win £20,000.

* Match two numbers and win a free Lotto Lucky Dip.

* You can still keep the lucky line you’ve played for the past 21 years - but you can also add a few higher numbers if you want.
