Every number was expected about that many times after 848 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 (27, 34, 36) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 12 March 2016 — its closest relative in 848 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 99% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (14 February 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 45% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

Sum and shape

155

The numbers add up to 155 — the 88th 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

34 had not appeared for 16 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 ≈2.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 12,759 winners, 6% fewer than the 14k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
