EuroMillions was a 5/50 + 2/11 · May 2011 – Sep 2016 game then. Everything on this page reads the draw against those rules and the 558 draws before it — not against today’s pool.
This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 13 September 2016 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 62 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 79% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 56 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 558 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.
Frequency Explorer →Shares 3 of 5 numbers (4, 7, 44) and 1 of 2 stars with the draw of 14 August 2015 — its closest relative in 558 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 93% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (9 September 2016): 4 carried over. Chance says 42% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: 1, 3 repeated (35% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 106 — the 24th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 128. No two numbers side by side. 35% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →7 had not appeared for 15 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.
Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →A line like this is played about 1.1× as often as an average ticket — about as popular as most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 7% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈20M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 1,512 winners, 11% more than the 1.4k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
