Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (31, 40, 54) with the draw of 1 August 2015 — its closest relative in 546 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (9 January 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

Carry-over / Déjà Vu →

Sum and shape

221

The numbers add up to 221 — the 84th 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.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

20 had not appeared for 17 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 83% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.8M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 731 winners, 12% fewer than the 830 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
