Comments:

• The draw used ball set 3 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £27.91. One in every 62.1 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.61% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,678,213.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £108.
• I matched one number on each of my two tickets to continue my winless streak during 1999.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 20th September 1999 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #340 (Saturday 27th March 1999) [2 jackpot winners]
