Sum and shape

195

The numbers add up to 195 — the 91th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 150. Side-by-side numbers: 29–30, 30–31. 50% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

30 had not appeared for 10 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 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 46% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈4.6M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 3,868 winners, 14% fewer than the 4.5k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
