Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (26, 38, 46) with the draw of 5 December 2012 — its closest relative in 435 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (1 March 2014): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

195

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

38 had not appeared for 14 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 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 51% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈5.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Bonus — 80,773 winners, 12% more than the 72k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
