Every number was expected about that many times after 516 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.

Sum and shape

163

The numbers add up to 163 — the 100th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 93. Side-by-side numbers: 30–31, 31–32. 47% of draws have at least one such pair.

Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

32 had not appeared for 13 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 0.4× as often as an average ticket — less popular than most. At 30 million tickets sold, a winner on these numbers would keep about 3% of the jackpot.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈647k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 9,243 winners, 16% more than the 8.0k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
