Every number was expected about that many times after 643 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 5 numbers (27, 42, 46) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 12 August 2024 — its closest relative in 643 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 98% likelihood somewhere in that history.

Sum and shape

163

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

46 had not appeared for 68 draws. A number waits about 9 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 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 9% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus Ball — 986 winners, 9% fewer than the 1.1k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
