Comments:
- The draw used ball set 2 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £35.98.
One in every 80.0 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.25% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £5,563,267.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 10 wins totalling £254.
- The 80th appearance of the winning number
38 has moved it to within four of
the winning number frequency
table
leader (the number 25).
- The appearance of the number
35 for the first time in 34 draws
as a
main number
or 21 draws as a
winning number
has handed the longest absentee mantle to the
number 24 (ironically also missing
for 34 and 21 draws respectively).
- The sum of the
seven winning numbers was the second highest ever.
- This draw had the second lowest number of 3-match
and total winners
of any Saturday draw to date.
- Annoyingly, if this was a Super Draw (like last
Saturday's draw), I'd have bought two extra tickets,
the second of which would have won £10. As it was,
my first ticket matched nothing and my second ticket only
matched one number, so it was a win only in my head I'm
afraid.
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 19th October 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
