Every number was expected about that many times after 295 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.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

63 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 0.4× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 64% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈47M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 63,377 winners, 22% fewer than the 82k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
