Every number was expected about that many times after 2,936 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 4 of 5 numbers (5, 27, 30, 33) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 5 December 2015 — its closest relative in 2,936 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 58% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (4 March 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (7% expected).

Sum and shape

113

The longest wait in this draw

18 had not appeared for 24 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 0.9× 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.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus Ball — 920 winners, 14% more than the 806 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
