Comments:

The draw used ball set 3 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £26.37. One in every 41.1 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.43% of players).
If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,648,123.
The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 10 wins totalling £100.
The number 25 has yet again joined the number 38 at the top of the main number frequency table after its 73rd appearance. Both numbers are an impressive 5 appearances ahead of the rest of the chasing pack.
Even more spectacular is the 7-appearance lead that the numbers 25 and 38, both on 87 appearances on each, enjoy at the top of the winning number frequency table.
I matched one number on my first two tickets and nothing on my third and fourth tickets, so the torrential downpour I bought the tickets in was indeed a bad omen.
Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 1st January 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
