Every number was expected about that many times after 447 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 6 numbers (17, 29, 41) with the draw of 25 May 2013 — its closest relative in 447 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (12 April 2014): nothing carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

17 had not appeared for 19 draws. A number waits about 9 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 ≈2.0M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 with Extra — 26,035 winners, 88% fewer than the 222k 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.
