Comments:
- The draw used ball set 3 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £15.09.
One in every 47.2 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.12% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,687,084.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 8 wins totalling £117.
- The 82nd main
and 96th winning
number appearance
of the number 38 has stretched its lead over
the rest in both tables to six and five appearances
respectively.
- Meanwhile, the number 13 has joined the
number 20 at the basement of the main number
frequency table after its 45th such appearance. It
also closed the gap to the number 39 to three
at the bottom of the winning number frequency table after
being drawn as one of the seven winning numbers for the
51st time.
- I matched one number on my first ticket and two numbers
on my second, which didn't help my bank balance one iota.
- Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 23rd April 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
