Every number was expected about that many times after 643 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.

From the draw just before (27 February 2016): 20 carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

183

The numbers add up to 183 — the 83th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 150. No two numbers side by side. 50% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

40 had not appeared for 12 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 54% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈4.3M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Bonus — 58,504 winners, 12% more than the 52k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
