Comments:

• The draw used ball set 8 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £31.28. One in every 69.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.44% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,903,917.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 4 wins totalling £40.
• The 39th main number appearance of the number 39 has left the number 19 two adrift at the basement of that frequency table. Its 43rd winning number appearance has also extended the gap to three to the rarest number (19 again) in that frequency table.
• This draw had the third lowest number of 3-match and total number of winners of all time.
• I matched nothing on my first ticket and one number on my second to finish the normal draws of this millennium on a losing note, just as I'd predicted.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 26th June 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
