Every number was expected about that many times after 670 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.

Its nearest twin

Shares 3 of 6 numbers (7, 21, 39) with the draw of 6 November 2021 — its closest relative in 670 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (9 March 2022): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

7 had not appeared for 29 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈17M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 0 winners, 100% fewer than the 1.7M 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.
