Every number was expected about that many times after 254 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 2 of 5 numbers (26, 51) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 20 February 2023 — its closest relative in 254 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (5 April 2023): nothing carried over. Chance says 32% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

15 had not appeared for 31 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 — 18,690 winners, 24% fewer than the 24k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
