Every number was expected about that many times after 285 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 2 of 5 numbers (18, 44) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 4 August 2012 — its closest relative in 285 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (22 September 2012): 13 carried over. Chance says 45% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

Sum and shape

144

The numbers add up to 144 — the 79th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 120. No two numbers side by side. 37% of draws have at least one such pair.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

44 had not appeared for 15 draws. A number waits about 9 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 10% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈4.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 + Mega Ball — 745 winners, 15% fewer than the 880 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
