Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 6 numbers (18, 26, 36, 39) with the draw of 24 December 2011 — its closest relative in 241 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 21% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (21 April 2012): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

15 had not appeared for 11 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 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 58% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈7.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Bonus — 78,617 winners, 12% fewer than the 89k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
