Every number was expected about that many times after 658 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, 24, 49) with the draw of 28 November 2015 — its closest relative in 658 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (20 April 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

49 had not appeared for 18 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 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 66% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈192k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 15,651 winners, 510% more than the 2.6k 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.
