Comments:

The draw used ball set 11 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £ 4.79. One in every 8.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=11.23% of players).

If all 45,057,474 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £86,160,504.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 29 wins totalling £813.

From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games, despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me. However, games with variable prize tiers such as the main Lotto can have their sales figures reverse-calculated to within a few pounds, which is what I have done.

Prizes won in this draw must be claimed within 180 days i.e. by 5.30pm BST on Monday 2nd September 2024.

Next Lotto: #2944 (Saturday 9th March 2024) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Lotto: #2942 (Saturday 2nd March 2024) [1 jackpot winner]
