Every number was expected about that many times after 435 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 (11, 18, 32) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 5 May 2012 — its closest relative in 435 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 99% likelihood somewhere in that history.

Sum and shape

126

The numbers add up to 126 — the 85th 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.

The longest wait in this draw

29 had not appeared for 10 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 →

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 3% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈2.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 648 winners, 20% fewer than the 807 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
