Every number was expected about that many times after 89 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.

The longest wait in this draw

57 had not appeared for 39 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 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 44% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈14M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Powerball — 1,138 winners, 15% more than the 990 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
