The jackpot prize pool for this, the 6th septuple rollover draw and the 574th rollover in total, included £16,574,503 (79.8%) rolled over from the previous lottery, in addition to the original jackpot prize pool of £4,191,489 (20.2%).
The draw used ball set 8 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £30.22.
One in every 116.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=0.86% of players).
If all 45,057,474 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £62,132,959.
The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £105.
From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games,
despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only
concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me.
However, games with variable prize tiers such as the main Lotto can have their sales figures reverse-calculated to within a few pounds, which is what I have done.
