Every number was expected about that many times after 61 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 2 of 6 numbers (23, 54) with the draw of 3 February 2016 — its closest relative in 61 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (7 May 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

194

The numbers add up to 194 — the 63th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 180. Side-by-side numbers: 22–23. 43% of draws have at least one such pair.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

23 had not appeared for 25 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 →

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.5× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 84% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈8.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 0 winners, 100% fewer than the 801k 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.
