Every number was expected about that many times after 66 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 (18, 27, 31) with the draw of 12 March 2016 — its closest relative in 66 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 75% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (21 May 2016): nothing carried over. Chance says 58% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

39 had not appeared for 16 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 42% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈698k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 plus Bonus Ball — 8,026 winners, 17% fewer than the 9.6k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
