Comments:
- The draw used ball set 5 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £18.89.
One in every 42.0 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.38% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,004,458.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £60.
- The 40th appearance of the main number
19 has left the number 20
alone at the basement of the main number
frequency table,
but its 43rd winning number
appearance
has still left it two adrift at the bottom of the
winning number frequency table.
- This draw had the outright smallest
range (19-4=15)
of main numbers ever.
- When sorted in ascending order, the 6th number
(19) was the outright lowest number in
that position ever.
- I matched nothing on my first ticket and only
one number my second, but it was sickening that
my "sixth ticket" (which I only buy for double or
triple rollovers) would have won £10 if I'd
bought it for this draw.
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 10th August 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
