Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (4, 24, 43) with the draw of 26 February 2011 — its closest relative in 219 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 99% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (9 March 2013): nothing carried over. Chance says 60% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

24 had not appeared for 28 draws. A number waits about 8 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 0.8× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 33% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈42M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 957 winners, 21% fewer than the 1.2k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
