Every number was expected about that many times after 359 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 5 numbers (39, 53, 67) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 20 September 2017 — its closest relative in 359 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 48% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (13 March 2019): nothing carried over. Chance says 32% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

Sum and shape

223

The numbers add up to 223 — the 86th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 175. No two numbers side by side. 27% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

34 had not appeared for 28 draws. A number waits about 14 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 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 42% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈41M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 968 winners, 14% fewer than the 1.1k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
