Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (3, 40, 44) with the draw of 2 January 2016 — its closest relative in 432 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (8 April 2017): 3, 32 carried over. Chance says 60% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

160

The longest wait in this draw

26 had not appeared for 19 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 0.6× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 39% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈40M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 969 winners, 15% fewer than the 1.1k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
