Comments:
- The draw used ball set 3 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £18.13.
One in every 40.4 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.48% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,397,098.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 3 wins totalling £30.
- The number 25 stretched its lead to three in the
winning number frequency
table after appearing as
one of the seven balls for the 78th time.
- This draw had the lowest 5+bonus, 5-match and 4-match
prize pools
of any Saturday draw to date. It also had the lowest jackpot prize pool for any
Saturday draw where the jackpot was won.
- It's like my selections are being taunted - for the second Saturday draw in a row one
of my tickets (the second one) matched two numbers and was one out on two other numbers.
The first ticket did even worse - only matched one number and was one out on two other
numbers.
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 15th June 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
