Comments:

• The draw used ball set 6 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £19.14. One in every 65.6 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.52% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,716,798.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 5 wins totalling £107.
• The main number pair 28, 31 has now appeared 8 times since the lottery began, which has only been achieved by 6 other such pairs to date.
• The winning number pair 20, 31 is now the only such pair to have appeared 11 times in the history of the lottery.
• One ticket combination has become the first to win 18 prizes since the lottery began.
• This was the 9th consecutive draw to use the Arthur machine, which will probably remain a record for some time to come.
• I matched one number on my first ticket and nothing on my second ticket, leaving me still waiting for my first win of the year of course.
• A 5+bonus prize of £182,397 won by a ticket bought in the Kingston Upon Hull area expired and was added to the Good Causes fund.
• Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm BST on Monday 13th July 1998 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
