Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

32 had not appeared for 17 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.5× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 45% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈51M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 1,122 winners, 23% fewer than the 1.5k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
