Comments:

• The draw used ball set 2 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £24.82. One in every 55.2 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.81% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,190,800.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included one win of £10.
• The winning number triple 02, 38, 48 is the 15th such triple to have appeared 3 times since the lottery began.
• All ticket combinations have managed at least one 2-match in the history of the lottery now that the numbers 9 and 10 have zapped the last one not to have achieved this.
• This was the first time that 4 consecutive draws had 5 or more jackpot winners or had individual jackpots below £2m.
• On-line ticket sales increased for the second consecutive "normal" week for the first time this year.
• Not a single match on either of my tickets this week, which last happened 12 weeks ago. My fourth choice ticket (which I only buy during a rollover week) would have won £10 this week if I'd actually bought it.
• £626,383 of unclaimed prizes (2.06% of the total prize pool) from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 13th March 1997 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
