Every number was expected about that many times after 538 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 6 numbers (5, 42, 46, 49) with the draw of 31 July 2013 — its closest relative in 538 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 41% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (25 February 2015): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

195

The longest wait in this draw

46 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 0.4× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 65% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈4.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 4,136 winners, 12% fewer than the 4.7k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
