Every number was expected about that many times after 737 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, 58, 61) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 2 October 2021 — its closest relative in 737 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 74% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (6 May 2026): nothing carried over. Chance says 32% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

61 had not appeared for 24 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 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 41% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈11M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 12,235 winners, 33% 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.
