Comments:

• The draw used ball set 1 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £30.92. One in every 68.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.45% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,128,729.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 6 wins totalling £60.
• I matched nothing on my first ticket and just one number on my second, so the "no luck syndrome" struck me yet again.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 2nd November 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #457 (Wednesday 10th May 2000) [No jackpot winners]
