Comments:

• The draw used ball set 5 in the Vyvyan machine and the average main Lotto prize was £24.49. One in every 54.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.84% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,980,203.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 12 wins totalling £120.
• The number 38 continues to dominate both the main (98th appearance - 12 ahead of the rest) and winning (114th appearance - a lead of 11) number frequency tables.
• I matched nothing on my first ticket and only one number on my second to continue my inevitably dismal run of form.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 11th February 2002 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
