Comments:

• The draw used ball set 3 in the Guinevere machine and the average main Lotto prize was £30.91. One in every 68.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.46% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,298,608.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 15 wins totalling £150.
• The jackpot ticket had the outright most prior wins of any jackpot ticket to date.
• This draw had the lowest number of 5-match winners ever.
• Over £2 billion in prizes have been awarded in all the Wednesday draws to date.
• Ticket sales dropped by their highest ever percentage between consecutive Wednesday draws, although the sales were actually the highest for a normal Wednesday draw for almost 9 months.
• I matched one number on each of my two subscription tickets, so sending off my sixth annual subscription form just before this draw didn't bring me any much-needed luck.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 17th July 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
