Comments:

• The draw used ball set 8 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £25.37. One in every 56.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.77% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,681,805.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £90.
• This was the first time that two consecutive Saturday draws had the same number of 5-match LIN(../Prizes_index.html,winners).
• I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second ticket to continue my multi-millennial losing run.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 20th July 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
