Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 6 numbers (8, 9, 26, 35) with the draw of 13 September 2019 — its closest relative in 1,891 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 85% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (28 January 2021): nothing carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

163

The longest wait in this draw

35 had not appeared for 29 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 47% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈32M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 5 of 18 — 10,174 winners, 1638% more than the 585 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.
