552times

Every number was expected about that many times after 522 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, 37, 38) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 8 June 2019 — its closest relative in 522 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 89% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (3 October 2022): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

157

The numbers add up to 157 — the 77th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 133. Side-by-side numbers: 37–38. 34% of draws have at least one such pair.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

37 had not appeared for 20 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 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 16% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈508k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,824 winners, 4% fewer than the 1.9k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
