The next table displays the draw order, revised frequencies and the last prior appearance of each of the 7 balls.
Comments:
- The draw used ball set 4 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £31.76.
One in every 70.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.42% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £3,739,713.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included one win of £10.
- There have now been 150 yellow main balls
drawn, 20 more than any other
colour.
- The sum of the 7 balls drawn
was the highest ever.
- Unusually, the numbers 33, 34,
46 and 47 were all making their
16th winning number appearance !
- The winning number triples 33, 34, 37 and
34, 47, 49 appeared for the
third time in the history of the lottery, helping them share the top of the
frequency table with 19 other such triples.
- The individual jackpot prize was the highest ever won in a normal week -
it was the first time such a jackpot prize exceeded £11m.
- This was the 20th consecutive draw with more than one million
prize winners.
- Ticket sales were the highest for a
normal week for over 8 months, probably due to the
residual excitement left over from last week's second anniversary
Super Draw.
- Similarly, the
Lucky Dip sales were the highest (both
in size and percentage of ticket sales) for a normal week.
- This was the first time that 3 of the 4 numbers in the 10th
row of the playslip appeared
as winning numbers in a single draw.
- One match on each of my two tickets continues my losing streak (no win
for 7 weeks now :-( ).
- £649,764 of unclaimed prizes (2.02% of the total prize pool) from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 22nd May 1997 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
