The longest wait in this draw

27 had not appeared for 25 draws. A number waits about 9 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 0.7× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 4% of the jackpot.

    The rings take the ≈285k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 1,920 winners, 8% fewer than the 2.1k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
