Comments:
- The draw used ball set 3 in the Vyvyan machine and the average main Lotto prize was £18.49.
One in every 41.2 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.43% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,034,057.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £90.
- The 22nd appearance of the winning number pair
09, 27 has closed the gap to the frequency
table leader
(46) to two.
- This draw had the third lowest won jackpot, 5+bonus, 5-match and 4-match
prize pools
of any Saturday draw to date.
- Camelot introduced a sixth lottery machine, Vyvian, for today's
main draw - that's two new machines in less than
one month. The likely explanation is that the
Extra draw also uses a machine from same set used for the main
draw (hey, how do they stop the bonus ball coming out ? :-) ) and hence
they need to bolster the overall number of machines.
- Like last Wednesday's draw, the first Saturday
draw to be associated with the National Lottery Extra draw
surprisingly caused a fall in the main lottery
ticket sales of £661,911,
again indicating that people are either dropping playing
altogether or are multi-ticket players who have switched one
or more of their tickets to the Extra draw.
- I matched nothing on my first ticket and two numbers
on my second ticket, but at least I ended the week with a
£10 win from the last draw.
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 17th May 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
