The longest wait in this draw

18 had not appeared for 25 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 →

How many people held it

A line like this is played about 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 28% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈229k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 5,485 winners, 0% more than the 5.5k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
