Every number was expected about that many times after 100 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 (18, 19, 31) and 1 of 1 stars with the draw of 2 May 2018 — its closest relative in 100 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 35% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (27 October 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

148

The numbers add up to 148 — the 67th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 133. Side-by-side numbers: 18–19, 31–32. 34% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

48 had not appeared for 85 draws. A number waits about 10 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 11% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈552k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,890 winners, 8% fewer than the 2.1k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
