Its nearest twin

Sum and shape

135

The longest wait in this draw

23 had not appeared for 23 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 1.4× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 65% 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 — 803 winners, 16% more than the 691 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
