Comments:
- The draw used ball set 2 in the Amethyst machine and the average prize was £7039469.00.
One in every 752752.7 tickets won a prize (=0.00% of players).
- This was the 390th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £1,000,000.
- 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 this one can have their sales figures reverse-calculated to within a few pounds, which is what I have done.
- This was the first time that three tickets had won the jackpot
for a single Lotto Extra draw, but one of the three jackpots - won by
a ticket bought in Belfast, Northern Ireland - remained
unclaimed after 6 months (setting a
UK record
at the time for the largest unclaimed jackpot ever) and was added to the
Good Causes fund.
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 5.30pm GMT on Thursday 3rd February 2005 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
