Every number was expected about that many times after 833 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 5 numbers (16, 26, 31) with the draw of 6 May 2013 — its closest relative in 833 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (27 January 2016): 23 carried over. Chance says 56% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

32 had not appeared for 27 draws. A number waits about 7 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 2% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈111k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Cash Ball — 3,198 winners, 39% more than the 2.3k 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.
