Every number was expected about that many times after 500 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 (8, 49, 50) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 12 June 2021 — its closest relative in 500 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 88% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (13 August 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

49 had not appeared for 13 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 ≈380k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_2_1_b — 2,275 winners, 4% fewer than the 2.4k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
