Comments:

• The draw used ball set 1 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £29.01. One in every 46.8 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.14% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £7,891,840.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 13 wins totalling £130.
• All five ball colours have now appeared as main numbers at least 600 times.
• The 79th appearance of the main number 23 has brought it to within 8 of the main number frequency table leader (the number 38).
• Thanks to the latest appearance of the number 19 as a bonus number, all numbers have appeared at least four times as a bonus number. The number 19 also had the second longest absence for a bonus number ever (266 draws).
• I matched nothing on my first two tickets and only one number on each of my third and fourth tickets, so yet another rollover goes by without a win coming my way.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 13th August 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
