Comments:

• The draw used ball set 1 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £30.15. One in every 57.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.73% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £7,109,184.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 4 wins totalling £40.
• Two ticket combinations have now won 26 prizes in the 444 lotteries to date.
• I matched nothing on my first two tickets and only one number on each of my third and fourth tickets, so the extra £2 outlay didn't help at all.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 21st September 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
