Comments:

• The draw used ball set 8 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £19.02. One in every 42.3 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.36% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,309,319.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £60.
• The 41st main number appearance of the main number 19 has left the number 20 two adrift at the basement of the main number frequency table. However, the number 19 is still one adrift at the bottom of the winning number frequency table after its 44th appearance as one of the seven drawn balls.
• The long-awaited third appearance of the bonus number 18 now means all bonus numbers have been drawn at least three times since the lottery began.
• This was only the second time that 4 of the 7 winning numbers had appeared in the previous draw.
• I matched one number on each of my two tickets - I hope this doesn't mean I'll only have one win all year...
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 14th August 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #434 (Saturday 19th February 2000) [1 jackpot winner]
