Every number was expected about that many times after 301 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.

Shares 2 of 5 numbers (31, 51) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 26 April 2023 — its closest relative in 301 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (24 July 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

51 had not appeared for 17 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 0.5× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 53% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈10M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 12,159 winners, 32% fewer than the 18k 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.
