The table below is courtesy of Camelot's phone line (0845 9100 000 *10).

The next table displays the draw order, revised frequencies and the last prior appearance of each of the 7 balls.

Comments:

• The draw used ball set 2 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £20.37. One in every 45.4 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.20% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £10,637,371.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 2 wins totalling £20.
• The winning number 13 has now failed to appear for 40 consecutive draws, which is the joint third longest such absence in the history of the lottery.
• The combination of the machine Arthur and ball set 2 was used for the 18th time, which is 3 more than any other combination.
• Ticket sales were the highest ever for a normal Wednesday draw - it was the first time they'd exceeded £30m for such a draw.
• The high ticket sales meant that the number of 3-match winners and the 3-match and total prize pools were also the highest for a normal Wednesday draw.
• I matched one number on each of my two tickets as I failed to win in the first "normal" draw for a few weeks...
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 25th May 1998 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
