Every number was expected about that many times after 316 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 (21, 30, 35, 40) with the draw of 24 December 2016 — its closest relative in 316 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 51% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (8 September 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number.

Sum and shape

148

The numbers add up to 148 — the 82th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 123. No two numbers side by side. 58% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

35 had not appeared for 16 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 18% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈235k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus — 572 winners, 12% fewer than the 647 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
