Comments:

The draw used ball set 12 in the Vyvyan machine and the average main Lotto prize was £26.29. One in every 58.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.71% of players).

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £8,584,967.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 11 wins totalling £229.

Although main Lotto ticket sales recovered slightly after last Saturday's all-time low, they were still the second worst Saturday main Lotto ticket sales ever.

HotPicks ticket sales exceeded £4m for the first time, although the number of winners in each tier were all lower than last Saturday.

I matched nothing on my first ticket and only one number on my second, so the luckmobile didn't visit my house, that's for sure.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 16th January 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lotto: #687 (Wednesday 24th July 2002) [2 jackpot winners]
Previous Lotto: #685 (Wednesday 17th July 2002) [2 jackpot winners]
