Every number was expected about that many times after 183 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 6 numbers (30, 50, 55) with the draw of 3 December 2011 — its closest relative in 183 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 86% likelihood somewhere in that history.

Sum and shape

264

The numbers add up to 264 — the 98th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 180. No two numbers side by side. 43% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

30 had not appeared for 15 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 88% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈2.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 831 winners, 13% fewer than the 959 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
