Comments:

• The draw used ball set 12 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £38.51. One in every 52.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.90% of players).
• This was the 50th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £23,435,056.
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £5,663,597.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 18 wins totalling £180.
• Four ticket combinations have now 31 prizes in the 598 draws to date.
• I won £10 on my fourth ticket (whilst managing a total whitewash on my first three tickets), so buying two extra tickets for a Super Draw finally paid off...
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 14th March 2002 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
