Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 5 numbers (1, 23, 42) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 12 September 2018 — its closest relative in 489 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 88% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (18 July 2022): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

23 had not appeared for 28 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 ≈491k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,694 winners, 8% fewer than the 1.8k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
