Every number was expected about that many times after 132 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 4 of 6 numbers (1, 13, 23, 24) with the draw of 6 November 2010 — its closest relative in 132 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 6.0% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (21 January 2012): nothing carried over. Chance says 49% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

24 had not appeared for 8 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 →

How many people held it

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈3.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 2,060 winners, 39% more than the 1.5k 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.
