This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 20 March 2026 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 61 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 76% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 99 of each
Times drawn before — chance expected 165 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 989 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 (5, 12, 46) and 0 of 2 stars with the draw of 2 August 2024 — its closest relative in 989 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 99% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (17 March 2026): 5 carried over. Chance says 42% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (32% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 116 — the 35th 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 →46 had not appeared for 14 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 0.9× as often as an average ticket — about as popular as most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 8% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈19M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 1,048,414 winners, 20% more than the 874k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
