Every number was expected about that many times after 852 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 (5, 14, 23) with the draw of 17 August 2016 — its closest relative in 852 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

Sum and shape

168

The longest wait in this draw

42 had not appeared for 25 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 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 68% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈270k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 19,896 winners, 451% more than the 3.6k 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.
