Comments:

The draw used ball set 8 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £25.14. One in every 55.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.79% of players).

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,505,187.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £142.

The 54th appearance of the winning number 19 has left the rarest such number (13) four adrift at the basement of the winning number frequency table.

The main number 17 has finally set an outright all-time record for failing to appear for the longest sequence of consecutive draws - an incredible 66 (almost 8 months since it last turned up).

I matched nothing on my first ticket and just one number on my second ticket, so my winnings equalled the number of goals in the Finland-England World Cup soccer qualifier game this evening.

Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 9th April 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #502 (Saturday 14th October 2000) [2 jackpot winners]
Previous Lottery: #500 (Saturday 7th October 2000) [3 jackpot winners]
