Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (1, 30, 42) with the draw of 24 February 2018 — its closest relative in 336 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (22 December 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 58% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

159

The numbers add up to 159 — the 67th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 144. Side-by-side numbers: 1–2, 41–42, 42–43. 51% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

30 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 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 45% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈513k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 plus Bonus Ball — 8,280 winners, 17% more than the 7.1k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
