Comments:

• The draw used ball set 1 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £17.24. One in every 38.4 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.61% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,503,591.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 7 wins totalling £70.
• This draw had the lowest 5+bonus, 5-match and 4-match prize pools for any Saturday draw to date. It also had the lowest jackpot prize pool ever for a Saturday draw where the jackpot was won.
• I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second ticket, but I hardly expected to win in two consecutive draws anyway.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 27th July 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #429 (Wednesday 2nd February 2000) [1 jackpot winner]
