From the draw just before (27 February 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

1 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.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈43M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 5 of 18 — 13,994 winners, 1668% more than the 791 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
