Every number was expected about that many times after 352 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 4 of 5 numbers (17, 21, 35, 42) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 13 June 2018 — its closest relative in 352 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 3.1% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (27 March 2021): 35 carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

133

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

17 had not appeared for 24 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 ≈421k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_1_1_b — 14,972 winners, 4% more than the 14k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
