Comments:

The draw used ball set T2 in the Excalibur 1 machine

The average prize was £ 9.89. One in every 20.5 tickets won a prize (=4.89% of players).

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 7 wins totalling £55.

The 16th appearance of the rarest main number (34) still left it one adrift at the bottom of the appropriate frequency table. It also remains two adrift of the rest at the basement of the winning number frequency table.

This was the eighth consecutive draw where there was at least one Thunderball jackpot winner, which is an all-time outright record.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 13th February 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #168 (Saturday 24th August 2002) [1 jackpot winner]
Previous Thunderball: #166 (Saturday 10th August 2002) [1 jackpot winner]
