Every number was expected about that many times after 1,238 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.

Sum and shape

200

The numbers add up to 200 — the 82th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 165. Side-by-side numbers: 26–27, 36–37. 46% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

26 had not appeared for 15 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 0.5× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 78% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈285k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 15,891 winners, 316% 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.
