Comments:

• The draw used ball set 3 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £17.94. One in every 60.1 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.66% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £3,553,388.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £239.
• All ball colours have now appeared as main numbers at least 500 times since the lottery began.
• The 42nd appearance of the main number 37 has left the number 20 two adrift at the basement of the main number frequency table.
• The first of the main number 37 for 26 draws has handled the longest main number absentee mantle to the number 29, which has failed to appear for 23 draws.
• I matched two numbers on my first ticket and nothing on my second ticket to predictably extend by losing run by another three days.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 7th September 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
