Comments:

• The draw used ball set 4 in the Lancelot machine and the average prize was £10500000.00. One in every 1557783.0 tickets won a prize (=0.00% of players).
• This was the 80th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £10,500,000.
• The number 28 has joined the number 42 at the top of the main number frequency table after its 16th such appearance.
• Ticket sales have now exceeded £100 million in total across all the 80 draws.
• This was only the 5th Extra jackpot to be won so far and had a bizarre commonality with the last Extra jackpot win 7 weeks ago, namely that it took the same run of £500,000 increments from £4m to £10.5m to finally manage to snag a jackpot winner. If you really must have more coincidences, they both drew the number 28 and used ball set 4 too - spooky !
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 14th February 2002 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
