Comments:

The draw used ball set 4 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £17.38. One in every 57.7 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 £8,869,757.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 11 wins totalling £184.

The 71st main number appearance of the number 13 has moved it to within three of the rest of the pack at the basement of the main number frequency table. It is also five adrift at the bottom of the winning number frequency table after its 82nd such appearance.

Only six ticket combinations have now failed to win in any of the 727 main lotteries to date.

Ticket sales for the main draw were the worst ever in the history of the lottery, resulting in the second lowest total prize pool of all time.

I matched one number on each of my two tickets, so I can't hide my delight that no-one won in the main draw tonight either...

Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 9th June 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lotto: #728 (Saturday 14th December 2002) [2 jackpot winners]
Previous Lotto: #726 (Saturday 7th December 2002) [1 jackpot winner]
