This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 25 June 2013 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 54 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 56% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 42 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 377 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.
Frequency Explorer →Shares 3 of 5 numbers (2, 6, 30) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 29 May 2012 — its closest relative in 377 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 92% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (21 June 2013): nothing carried over. Chance says 46% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (5% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 90 — the 18th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 115. No two numbers side by side. 39% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →2 had not appeared for 13 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 →A line like this is played about 1.2× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 3% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈3.7M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 645 winners, 13% more than the 569 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
