Every number was expected about that many times after 68 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 (3, 5, 23) and 1 of 1 stars with the draw of 15 April 2023 — its closest relative in 68 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 90% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (13 May 2023): nothing carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: 0 repeated (100% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

26 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.
