Comments:

The draw used ball set 4 in the Merlin machine and the average main Lotto prize was £37.24. One in every 71.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.39% of players).

This was the 43rd Super Draw and the jackpot pool was a guaranteed £13,700,000.

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £6,450,148.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 13 wins totalling £130.

In case you're wondering where the "missing" £17,385 from last Wednesday's rolled-over jackpot is, Camelot are now rounding down the rolled over amount to the nearest £100,000 when there's a rollover Super Draw (presumably for publicity convenience). Hence, although it would normally have been a £13,717,385 jackpot prize pool, it was actually £13.7m.

This was the first time that there's been three consecutive Saturday rollover draws.

I matched one number on each of my first three tickets and nothing on my fourth ticket, so let's hope the next two Super Draws are more fruitful.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 5th October 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #449 (Wednesday 12th April 2000) [8 jackpot winners]
