The next table displays the draw order, revised frequencies and the last prior appearance of each of the 7 balls.

Comments:

• The draw used ball set 3 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £20.58. One in every 72.4 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.38% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,308,337.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included one win of £10.
• The 19th appearance of the rarest winning number, 39, has moved it to within one of the rest of the pack.
• The winning number 13 has now failed to appear for 42 consecutive draws, which is the outright second longest such absence ever.
• The 4-match prize was the highest ever for a Wednesday draw.
• The number of 4-match winners was the second lowest ever and the number of 3-match and total winners was the third lowest ever.
• I matched nothing on my first ticket and one number on my second ticket to continue my multi-month losing run.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 1st June 1998 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
