Sum and shape

156

The numbers add up to 156 — the 72th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 138. Side-by-side numbers: 36–37, 37–38. 53% of draws have at least one such pair.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

36 had not appeared for 23 draws. A number waits about 7 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 0.4× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 50% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈49M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 1,150 winners, 18% fewer than the 1.4k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
