Every number was expected about that many times after 1,715 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.

From the draw just before (28 April 2020): 19 carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (7% expected).

Sum and shape

105

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

6 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 →

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 2% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.4M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus Ball — 827 winners, 13% fewer than the 945 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
