Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 5 numbers (9, 30, 35) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 29 January 2018 — its closest relative in 1,194 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (18 May 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: 4 repeated (17% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

30 had not appeared for 12 draws. A number waits about 7 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 ≈108k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Cash Ball — 2,937 winners, 30% more than the 2.3k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more 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.
