Comments:

The draw used ball set 1 in the Pearl machine and the average main Lotto prize was £30.77. One in every 47.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=2.09% of players).

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £7,571,753.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 23 wins totalling £303.

From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games, despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me. However, games with variable prize tiers such as the main Lotto can have their sales figures reverse-calculated to within a few pounds, which is what I have done.

Yes, it was the first ever triple rollover main Lotto game, but sadly that looks like the only "record-breaking" thing we can say about this draw.

OK, I admit we did see the highest main draw ticket sales this millennium, but it still only put it at #61 in the all-time ticket sales chart.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 5.30pm GMT on Thursday 25th November 2004 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lotto: #881 (Wednesday 2nd June 2004) [1 jackpot winner]
