Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (27, 33, 42) with the draw of 28 July 2012 — its closest relative in 241 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (10 August 2013): 27 carried over. Chance says 60% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

187

The longest wait in this draw

45 had not appeared for 23 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 0.4× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 53% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈45M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 947 winners, 27% fewer than the 1.3k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably less 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.
