Every number was expected about that many times after 467 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 6 numbers (7, 16, 21, 40) with the draw of 6 December 2017 — its closest relative in 467 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 65% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (7 April 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

7 had not appeared for 36 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 23% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈4.3M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 + Bonus — 653 winners, 17% more than the 560 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
