Every number was expected about that many times after 653 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 3 of 6 numbers (1, 3, 31) with the draw of 3 October 2015 — its closest relative in 653 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (2 April 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

61

The longest wait in this draw

31 had not appeared for 15 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 3.0× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 15% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈6.0M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 10,874 winners, 86% more than the 5.8k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
