Comments:
- The draw used ball set 8 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £20.78.
One in every 46.2 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.16% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,700,007.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included no wins.
- 17 and 42 both appeared as main numbers for the sixth time in 21 draws,
which makes them the most frequent main numbers so far. As a pair, they've
now appeared 5 times together (3 times in the last 6 draws incredibly),
which is almost freaky !
- It was the only the third time that the 6 main numbers had appeared in
just 2 columns of the playslip.
- This was the highest individual jackpot that had been won by
3 or more people in a single draw, beating the previous record
holder,
Lottery #11,
by nearly £400,000.
- There were also record ticket sales for a non-rollover/Super Draw
week.
- I rang Camelot for a second time and disputed their figure of
£28,699,051 for the total prize pool. They did eventually correct this
mistake several weeks after the draw, but during the week following the draw,
they refused to change their figures.
- BBC and ITV teletext dismally failed to specify the exact jackpot amount
over the weekend...not the first time this has happened.
- Only one match for me this week, so no yachts in Bermuda (yet)...
- £896,414 of unclaimed prizes (3.13% of the total prize pool) from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 5th October 1995 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
