Comments:

The draw used ball set 4 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £18.24. One in every 61.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.62% of players).
This was the 42nd Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £23,313,361.
If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a profit of £13,565,006.
The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 3 wins totalling £30.
The 44th appearance of the winning number 39 has left the rarest winning number, 19, four adrift at the bottom of the appropriate frequency table.
It's been a record-equalling run of 45 weeks since the previous unwon jackpot prize pool in a Saturday draw. Bizarrely, the other record run also ended with an unwon jackpot in a Super Draw (although it was an experimental 5+bonus Super Draw admittedly)...
This draw had the third highest ever unwon jackpot prize pool.
I matched one number on my first, third and fourth tickets and nothing on my second ticket, but perhaps the four extra tickets I'll buy for Wednesday might finally bring me luck for the first time in this new millennium.
Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 6th July 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #423 (Wednesday 12th January 2000) [9 jackpot winners]
