Comments:

The draw used ball set 4 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £22.36. One in every 49.7 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.01% of players).

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £9,245,742.

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

The number 38 stretched its leads at the top of both the main (to 9) and winning (to 13) number frequency tables after its 113th and 132nd such appearances respectively.

Ticket sales dropped to their second lowest level ever for a Saturday main Lotto draw. Even worse, the HotPicks sales fell to their lowest ever for a Saturday HotPicks draw.

I matched nothing on my first ticket and one number on my second ticket to continue my awful run of losses.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 6th March 2003 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lotto: #701 (Wednesday 11th September 2002) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Lotto: #699 (Wednesday 4th September 2002) [1 jackpot winner]
