This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 26 November 2024 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 47 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 35% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 67 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 669 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 4 of 5 numbers (2, 22, 46, 49) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 28 October 2022 — its closest relative in 669 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 6.9% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (22 November 2024): 46 carried over. Chance says 42% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (5% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 142 — the 67th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 128. Side-by-side numbers: 22–23. 35% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →23 had not appeared for 31 draws. A number waits about 10 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 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 9% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈3.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 15,863 winners, 9% fewer than the 17k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
