Every number was expected about that many times after 628 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 (33, 42, 44) with the draw of 24 September 2014 — its closest relative in 628 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (6 January 2016): 44 carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

251

The longest wait in this draw

33 had not appeared for 21 draws. A number waits about 9 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 0.3× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 83% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈284k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 27,308 winners, 617% more than the 3.8k 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.
