Comments:
- The draw used ball set 3 in the Galahad machine and the average main Lotto prize was £38.37.
One in every 57.2 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.75% of players).
- This was the 49th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £20,000,000.
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £5,813,113.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 14 wins totalling £229.
- The number 38 has now appeared
105 times as one of the seven winning balls - more
than anyone else and 9 more than second-placed number
25 (which also
appeared
in this draw).
- One ticket combination
has now won 30 prizes in the 548 lotteries to date.
- Over £4 billion has now been dished out in jackpot
prizes across all the draws to date.
- I matched one number on my first ticket, two numbers on my
second ticket, nothing on my third ticket and 2 numbers on my
fourth and final ticket - yes, 5 numbers in all, but not a penny
in winnings of course.
- Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 20th September 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
