Comments:
- The draw used ball set 7 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £15.26.
One in every 48.0 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.08% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,799,238.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 12 wins totalling £169.
- The 68th appearance of the main number
25 has moved it two clear of the
rest of the pack in the main number frequency
table.
It's also got a lead of three in the winning
number frequency
table
after its 80th appearance as one of the seven
drawn balls.
- The first appearance of the number
30 for 26 draws meant that the
number 45 is now on its own
as the longest current
absentee.
- Ticket sales were the
third lowest of all time and the worst for
over 2.5 years.
- I matched one number on my first ticket
and nothing on my second, so my multi-millennia
losing streak continues.
- Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 3rd July 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
