Every number was expected about that many times after 352 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 5 numbers (7, 12, 40) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 28 April 2012 — its closest relative in 352 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 87% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (15 May 2013): nothing carried over. Chance says 45% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

7 had not appeared for 30 draws. A number waits about 9 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 1.1× as often as an average ticket — about as popular as most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 5% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈3.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 23,396 winners, 12% more than the 21k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
