Every number was expected about that many times after 95 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 (6, 7, 41) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 22 September 2021 — its closest relative in 95 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 16% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (30 March 2022): nothing carried over. Chance says 32% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

6 had not appeared for 21 draws. A number waits about 14 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 ≈19M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 348 winners, 33% fewer than the 517 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably less 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.
