Type the numbers you always play. Has the line ever come up? How close has Cash 5 come? What has each number done, what does the line look like, and has the same set turned up anywhere else in the world?
Every tool, for this game
Each one opens with Cash 5 already selected. The line under every title is true of this game’s rules right now — not a promise about its next draw.

In 6,125 draws every number is expected about 875 times, and a ball favoured by more than 13% over its share would already have shown — see which ones strayed, and how far chance allows.

A number waits 7 draws on average; 5% of the time it waits 21 or more. It is never “due”.

The 5 numbers add up to about 90, give or take 21. Most tickets sit in that bell — and so do most draws.

47.7% of draws contain two numbers side by side. That is the rules talking, not luck.

595 possible pairs, each expected together 102.9 times so far — and about 6 will look “special” by chance alone.

All 35 numbers as a constellation of who appeared with whom — indistinguishable from a shuffled sky.

56% of draws repeat a number from the draw before. A whole draw repeating: 100.0% likely by now.

Sorted, the numbers sit about 6.0 apart on average — and every “spread” you can name is exactly as likely as every other.

It takes about 28 draws for every one of the 35 numbers to appear at least once. The last few are the slow ones.

324,632 possible tickets. Every one has a face — and a typicality score you can look up.

Seven independent tests of randomness run live against all 6,125 draws. Any of them can fail; watch whether they do.

The lowest number lands near 6, the highest near 30. Position is a property of sorting, not of the balls.

5/35 rescaled onto the same axes as every other game here. One law, many machines.

Six documented cases of a beaten lottery. Not one involved patterns in past draws.

What the world believes about 7, 8, 13 and 17 — and what every machine says back.

At 30 million tickets, an average line keeps about 1% of a jackpot it wins. Unpopular numbers keep more — and still lose money.

A full wheel of 10 numbers here is 252 tickets. A guarantee is real; a profit is not.

Five folk claims about 5/35 games, each answered with the closed form that kills it — never a tip for the next draw.

Not for this game
The Chernoff Map reads the straight tier of a digit game, which counts tickets on one exact number; a ball game has no such row.

What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 12 October 2026 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 33 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 13% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 875 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 6,124 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.
Frequency Explorer →Shares 3 of 5 numbers (3, 4, 29) with the draw of 28 May 2026 — its closest relative in 6,124 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (11 October 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 72 — the 20th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 90. Side-by-side numbers: 2–3, 3–4. 48% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →2 had not appeared for 20 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.
Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →A line like this is played about 1.0× as often as an average ticket — about as popular as most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 1% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈51k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 689 winners, 0% more than the 689 an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.

The side bet sold beside the ticket. How many people buy it is not published; the prize table gives it away, because a multiplied outcome is reported twice — once for the tickets that paid the extra, once for those that did not.

This add-on changes the odds rather than the prize, so it has no multiplier to price. Take-up only.
What the top prize has been, draw by draw. It climbs while nobody wins and drops to the floor when somebody does — the sawtooth every rollover game draws.
Happenedwhat chance predicts
Completed waits between wins, against the geometric law those waits follow if every draw is an independent chance at the jackpot. The law takes its one parameter from the waits themselves, so this compares shape, not level.
