This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 16 May 2026 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 66 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 89% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 166 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 1,294 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.
Frequency Explorer →Shares 3 of 5 numbers (3, 28, 33) with the draw of 13 May 2026 — its closest relative in 1,294 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (15 May 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number.
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 98 — the 46th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 100. No two numbers side by side. 44% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →12 had not appeared for 12 draws. A number waits about 8 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.
Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →A line like this is played about 1.0× as often as an average ticket — about as popular as most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 2% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈374k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 3,561 winners, 2% fewer than the 3.6k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
