Comments:

• The draw used ball set 1 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £27.67. One in every 61.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.63% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,316,009.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 7 wins totalling £167.
• The first appearance of the main number 41 for 26 draws has left the 11 as the longest such absentee (not appeared in 26 consecutive draws).
• I matched two numbers on my first ticket and one on my second, which makes it 8 months for me now without a win.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 14th October 1999 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
