Comments:

The draw used ball set 7 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £22.24. One in every 49.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.02% of players).
If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,801,845.
The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 15 wins totalling £227.
I matched one number on my first ticket and two numbers on my second ticket, but that's not the way to get a "3 match" and some winnings of course...
Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 9th October 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
