Comments:

• The draw used ball set 8 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £24.02. One in every 47.0 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.13% of players).
• This was the 10th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £5,000,001.
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,702,855.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 3 wins totalling £30.
• The 29th appearance of the winning number 28 has closed the gap to four to the leading three numbers in the winning number frequency table.
• The main number pair 17, 40 has now joined three other such pairs on seven appearances since the lottery began.
• Only a single match on my first ticket and no matches on the remaining three tickets predictably lost me another £4.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 22nd December 1997 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
