Comments:

• The draw used ball set 4 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £27.02. One in every 51.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.94% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,499,995.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 13 wins totalling £190.
• The 85th main number appearance of the number 38 has left it a massive 8 clear of the rest. It also has a lead of seven in the winning number frequency table and has also become the first winning number to make 100 appearances.
• The 53rd appearance of the main number 37 has left the two rarest such numbers (13 and 20) five adrift at the bottom of the appropriate frequency table.
• I matched nothing on my first two tickets and one number on each of my third and fourth tickets, so no early Christmas present for me then.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 21st June 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
