Comments:

• The draw used ball set 4 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £21.89. One in every 48.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.06% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,432,414.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 12 wins totalling £120.
• Ticket sales dropped to their lowest level of all time.
• I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second ticket, so another draw flitted by without a win.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 24th February 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
