Comments:

• The draw used ball set 3 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £29.68. One in every 66.1 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.51% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,532,144.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 5 wins totalling £50.
• The winning number 25 now has a lead of four at the top of the winning number frequency table after its 81st such appearance.
• The winning number 19 is now four adrift at the bottom of the frequency table after the 46th appearance of the number 39 as one of the seven drawn numbers.
• The 18th appearance of the winning number pair 25, 32 has cut the lead of the pair 09, 27 to two at the top of the appropriate frequency table.
• This draw had the third lowest number of 5+bonus winners ever.
• I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second - let's hope another losing sequence isn't being fermented...
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 31st July 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
