429times

Every number was expected about that many times after 368 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 (14, 31, 40) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 3 October 2018 — its closest relative in 368 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 79% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (22 May 2021): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

40 had not appeared for 18 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈447k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,830 winners, 9% more than the 1.7k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
