Every number was expected about that many times after 552 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 (6, 8, 14, 31) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 22 December 2012 — its closest relative in 552 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 71% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (2 February 2019): nothing carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

26 had not appeared for 19 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.
