One in every 53.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.87% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,769,467.

- The winning number 44 appeared for the 45th time
to stretch its lead in the frequency
table to three.
- The winning number pair 14, 25 has become only the
seventh such pair to have
appeared
ten times since the lottery began.
- There are now two ticket
combinations that have won 17 prizes
since the lottery began.
- I matched no numbers on my first ticket and one on my second ticket to
continue my dismal losing run.
