Every number was expected about that many times after 150 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.

Shares 2 of 5 numbers (31, 44) and 0 of 2 stars with the draw of 9 February 2018 — its closest relative in 150 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (2 March 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 42% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (32% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

26 had not appeared for 31 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈25M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 57,846 winners, 26% fewer than the 79k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably less 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.
