Every number was expected about that many times after 604 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 (3, 11, 24, 40) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 5 November 2016 — its closest relative in 604 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 74% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (3 August 2019): 7 carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

110

The longest wait in this draw

3 had not appeared for 22 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 1.5× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 9% of the jackpot.

    The rings take the ≈3.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 + Powerball — 784 winners, 2% more than the 767 an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
