EuroMillions was a 5/50 + 2/11 · May 2011 – Sep 2016 game then. Everything on this page reads the draw against those rules and the 110 draws before it — not against today’s pool.
This draw, read by every tool
What the site’s explorations say about the numbers drawn on 29 May 2012 — each beside what chance predicted. None of it says anything about the next draw.
Scored 34 of 100 across six shape features — more typical than about 13% of every possible ticket.
Times drawn before — chance expected 11 of each
Every number was expected about that many times after 110 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 5 numbers (15, 17, 28) and 0 of 2 stars with the draw of 7 February 2012 — its closest relative in 110 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 41% likelihood somewhere in that history.
From the draw just before (25 May 2012): nothing carried over. Chance says 42% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (35% expected).
Carry-over / Déjà Vu →The numbers add up to 93 — the 13th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 128. No two numbers side by side. 35% of draws have at least one such pair.
Sum Distribution →25 had not appeared for 14 draws. A number waits about 10 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 2.6× as often as an average ticket — more popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 3% of the jackpot.

The Unpopular Numbers Edge →Where the money went
The rings take the ≈27M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 3,697 winners, 97% more than the 1.9k 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.
