Comments:

• The draw used ball set 4 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £26.85. One in every 59.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.68% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £7,852,323.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 11 wins totalling £192.
• The 74th main and 88th winning number appearance of the number 25 has moved it to within five of the leader in both tables (the number 38).
• I matched nothing on my first ticket and one number on my second, so roll on next Saturday's £20m Super Draw and a lot more luck...
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 8th March 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #493 (Wednesday 13th September 2000) [2 jackpot winners]
