This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 21 May 2026 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 53 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 51% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 20 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 166 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 4 of 6 numbers (4, 35, 37, 38) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 9 February 2026 — its closest relative in 166 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 14% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (18 May 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 162 — the 60th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 153. Side-by-side numbers: 37–38. 49% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →40 had not appeared for 12 draws. A number waits about 8 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 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 61% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈261k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 3,922 winners, 10% fewer than the 4.3k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
