Every number was expected about that many times after 357 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 (19, 28, 41) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 3 April 2019 — its closest relative in 357 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 78% likelihood somewhere in that history.

Sum and shape

142

The longest wait in this draw

41 had not appeared for 30 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

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈465k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,672 winners, 4% fewer than the 1.7k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
