Comments:

The draw used ball set 4 in the Amethyst machine and the average main Lotto prize was £35.61. One in every 47.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.10% of players).

This was the 67th Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £18,268,465.

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £1,631,849.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 21 wins totalling £265.

From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games, despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me. However, games with variable prize tiers such as the main Lotto can have their sales figures reverse-calculated to within a few pounds, which is what I have done.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 5.30pm GMT on Thursday 19th January 2006 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
