Every number was expected about that many times after 467 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, 32, 48) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 28 July 2021 — its closest relative in 467 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 86% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (4 May 2022): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

192

The numbers add up to 192 — the 97th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 133. No two numbers side by side. 34% of draws have at least one such pair.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

48 had not appeared for 16 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 0.4× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 22% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈631k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,952 winners, 17% fewer than the 2.4k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
