Comments:

• The draw used ball set 8 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £31.51. One in every 65.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.52% of players).
• This was the 40th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £10,000,000.
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,284,849.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £117.
• The first appearance of the main number 43 for 23 draws has left the main numbers 35 and 40 as the longest main number absentees (neither has appeared for 22 draws).
• Ticket sales for all 392 lottery draws to date have now exceeded £20 billion in total.
• I matched nothing on my first and fourth tickets and one number on each of my second and third tickets to complete a September Super Draw whitewash for me.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 23rd March 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
