Every number was expected about that many times after 995 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 (1, 22, 24) with the draw of 14 September 2019 — its closest relative in 995 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (29 April 2020): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

Carry-over / Déjà Vu →

Sum and shape

162

The numbers add up to 162 — the 33th 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

24 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 1.1× as often as an average ticket — about as popular as most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 70% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 459 winners, 11% fewer than the 516 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
