48times

Every number was expected about that many times after 105 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 (8, 9, 18, 25) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 28 July 2012 — its closest relative in 105 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 21% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (9 November 2013): 9, 18, 28 carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

25 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.

    The rings take the ≈7.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 + Powerball — 1,569 winners, 0% more than the 1.6k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
