Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 5 numbers (18, 24, 41) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 18 February 2017 — its closest relative in 810 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 99% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (4 October 2017): 24 carried over. Chance says 45% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

Sum and shape

146

The numbers add up to 146 — the 80th 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

18 had not appeared for 42 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 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 7% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈2.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 12,090 winners, 10% fewer than the 13k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
