The longest wait in this draw

3 had not appeared for 20 draws. A number waits about 8 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 40% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈43M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 1,049 winners, 15% fewer than the 1.2k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
