This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 13 April 2010 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 27 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 6% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 10 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 66 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 7 numbers (19, 20, 21) with the draw of 16 February 2010 — its closest relative in 66 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 99% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (6 April 2010): nothing carried over. Chance says 72% of draws repeat at least one number.
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 155 — the 42th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 161. Side-by-side numbers: 19–20, 20–21, 21–22, 22–23. 66% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →33 had not appeared for 12 draws. A number waits about 6 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 2.5× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 49% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈8.8M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 5 — 3,365 winners, 31% 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.
