Every number was expected about that many times after 240 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 6 numbers (8, 30, 37) with the draw of 9 January 2016 — its closest relative in 240 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (3 February 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

36 had not appeared for 11 draws. A number waits about 7 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 0.5× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 24% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈6.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 + Bonus — 853 winners, 4% fewer than the 888 an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
