This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 1 April 2011 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 68 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 92% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 23 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 176 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 (12, 15, 21) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 18 March 2011 — its closest relative in 176 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 83% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (30 March 2011): nothing carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (7% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 108 — the 62th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 100. No two numbers side by side. 44% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →24 had not appeared for 17 draws. A number waits about 8 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 2% of the jackpot.
