Every number was expected about that many times after 565 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 3 of 6 numbers (9, 21, 26) with the draw of 3 February 2021 — its closest relative in 565 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (6 March 2021): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

104

The longest wait in this draw

21 had not appeared for 10 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 ≈12M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 0 winners, 100% fewer than the 1.2M 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.
