Comments:

• The draw used ball set 4 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £36.61. One in every 64.8 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.54% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £2,315,019.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 2 wins totalling £107. This included a 4-match win in Lottery #39, which is only the second time that's happened.
• For a single rollover draw only, the following events entered the record books:
  • Biggest 5+bonus prize pool, 5-match prize pool and 4-match prize pool.
  • Second highest ticket sales.
  • Third largest jackpot prize pool.
• Two matches on my second ticket and one match on my third out of the four tickets I had for this draw continued my losing streak.
• £774,962 of unclaimed prizes (1.72% of the total prize pool) from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 31st October 1996 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
