Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 5 numbers (1, 9, 27) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 19 December 2018 — its closest relative in 1,574 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (24 August 2019): 9, 15 carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (7% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

29 had not appeared for 5 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 2.1× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 1% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈910k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus Ball — 718 winners, 13% more than the 634 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
