Comments:

• The draw used ball set 3 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £30.02. One in every 66.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.50% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,497,181.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 16 wins totalling £234.
• The latest appearance of the main number 38 has stretched its lead at the top of both the main (15 after its 103rd appearance) and winning (13 after its 119th appearance) number frequency tables.
• Three ticket combinations have now won 32 prizes in the 609 lotteries to date.
• By not turning up in an impressive 55 consecutive draws as a main number, the number 42 has just become the outright third longest main number absentee.
• I matched one number on each of my two tickets to yet again cause my bank account to debit by £2.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 22nd April 2002 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
