Comments:
- The draw used ball set 6 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £26.04.
One in every 57.9 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 £9,273,479.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £184.
- The 68th main number
appearance of
the number 38 has moved it to within two
of the leader (the number 25 of that frequency table.
It's also three behind of the number 25 at the top of
the winning number frequency
table after its
81st appearance as one of the seven drawn balls.
- The two current longest main number absentees,
the numbers 24 (not been seen for 37 draws) and
38 (not been seen for 25 draws) both appeared in this draw,
handing over the mantle to the number 21, which hasn't
appeared as one of the main six balls
for 25 draws.
- I matched one number on each of my two tickets, so no post-May Day
luck for me.
- Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 30th October 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
