Every number was expected about that many times after 255 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 4 of 5 numbers (17, 18, 24, 40) and 1 of 2 stars with the draw of 1 June 2018 — its closest relative in 255 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 2.7% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (5 March 2019): nothing carried over. Chance says 42% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: 8 repeated (32% expected).

Sum and shape

118

The numbers add up to 118 — the 38th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 128. Side-by-side numbers: 17–18, 18–19. 35% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

40 had not appeared for 35 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 ≈36M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus 2 Bonus Balls — 1,920 winners, 25% fewer than the 2.6k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
