Every number was expected about that many times after 607 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 (5, 12, 24) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 20 December 2017 — its closest relative in 607 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 92% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (19 April 2023): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

9 had not appeared for 37 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 ≈330k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 1,602 winners, 30% more than the 1.2k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
