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 8 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £21.96.
One in every 48.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.05% of players).
- If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,494,540.
- The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 9 wins totalling £90.
- The main number 38 has joined the
number 25 at the top of the main number
frequency table
after its 71st such appearance. It also closed the
gap to one to the same leading number (25) in the winning
number frequency
table
after appearing as one of the 7 winning balls for
the 84th time.
- Four ticket
combinations have
now won 26 prizes in the 463 draws to date.
- This was the first time that a Wednesday draw had
the same number of jackpot and 5+bonus
winners as the previous
Wednesday's draw.
- I matched only one number on each of my two tickets
and the loss wasn't helped by knowing that a double
rollover would have won me £10 on my fifth ticket,
but it wasn't even a single rollover, so ignore my
ramblings...
- Unclaimed prizes from this draw expired at 11.00pm GMT on Monday 27th November 2000 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
