Every number was expected about that many times after 712 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 (26, 30, 37) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 16 January 2013 — its closest relative in 712 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 98% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (26 October 2016): 26 carried over. Chance says 45% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

Sum and shape

99

The numbers add up to 99 — the 23th 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.

The longest wait in this draw

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

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈3.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 15,216 winners, 10% fewer than the 17k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
