Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 5 numbers (8, 20, 29, 32) with the draw of 22 September 2021 — its closest relative in 5,905 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 91% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (19 June 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 55% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

The numbers add up to 99 — the 60th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 93. No two numbers side by side. 47% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

8 had not appeared for 15 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

How many people held it

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 1% of the jackpot.
