Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (18, 26, 41) with the draw of 11 July 2015 — its closest relative in 534 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (28 November 2015): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

Carry-over / Déjà Vu →

Sum and shape

169

The longest wait in this draw

41 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 1.2× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 68% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 613 winners, 12% fewer than the 700 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
