Every number was expected about that many times after 797 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 6 numbers (19, 28, 33, 41) with the draw of 1 September 2021 — its closest relative in 797 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 31% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (27 May 2023): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

199

The numbers add up to 199 — the 67th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 180. No two numbers side by side. 43% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

19 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.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 79% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈6.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 0 winners, 100% fewer than the 594k 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.
