Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (6, 35, 37) with the draw of 21 November 2015 — its closest relative in 404 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (24 September 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 60% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

140

The longest wait in this draw

35 had not appeared for 18 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 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 33% 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 — 1,095 winners, 10% 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.
