Comments:

The draw used ball set 10 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £ 6.36. One in every 7.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=13.09% of players).

If all 45,057,474 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £78,646,516.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 47 wins totalling £1,106.

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.

Prizes won in this draw must be claimed within 180 days i.e. by 5.30pm BST on Monday 16th September 2024.

Next Lotto: #2948 (Saturday 23rd March 2024) [1 jackpot winner]
Previous Lotto: #2946 (Saturday 16th March 2024) [No jackpot winners]
