Comments:

• The draw used ball set 2 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £17.35. One in every 57.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.74% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £7,991,148.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 5 wins totalling £50.
• All five colours of balls have now appeared at least 600 times each as one of the 7 winning balls.
• The 69th appearance of the main number 38 has closed the gap to one to the frequency table leader (the number 25). It's also second in the winning number frequency table after its 82nd such appearance and is now only two behind the leading number (38 again) in that table.
• The winning number pair 38, 46 is now only one behind the table leader (the pair 09, 27) after its 19th such appearance.
• I matched one number on each of my two tickets, so I'm not too unhappy no-one else won the jackpot...
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 6th November 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
