Comments:
- The draw used ball set 8 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £20.45.
One in every 45.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.19% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,543,144.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £136.
- The number 38 joined the number 25
at the top of the main number frequency
table after its 55th such appearance.
- The first appearance of the number 12 for 28 draws
has left the numbers 11 and 41 as the longest
main number absentees (21 draws since their last appearance) and
the numbers 4 and 14 as the longest winning number
absentees (neither has been seen for 20 draws).
- I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second, so
bang goes another £2...
- Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 27th September 1999 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
