The longest wait in this draw

56 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 0.4× 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 ≈970k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 9,920 winners, 2% fewer than the 10k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
