Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (12, 15, 25) with the draw of 7 September 2013 — its closest relative in 268 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (15 February 2014): nothing carried over. Chance says 60% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

12 had not appeared for 24 draws. A number waits about 8 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 1.3× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 20% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈52M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 1,163 winners, 22% 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.
