What do these numbers show?
- The longest current gap belonged to number 27: 39 draws without a hit (history, N = 7 315). In the random model a gap at least this long occurred with probability 0.7% for a single number. Of its own finished gaps, 99.3% were shorter (out of 845 gaps).
- 5 of 42 numbers had a current gap longer than twice the expected one (7.4 draws, model).
- The median current gap was 5.0 draws versus an expected 7.4 in the model. None of these figures says anything about the next draw.
These are historical data. Each draw is independent of previous draws, so these numbers do not tell us what will be drawn next.
How do I use this page?
- Read in the table how many draws have passed since each number was last drawn.
- Compare this gap with the model expectation and with the number's own history (percentile).
- Click a column header to sort the table by another measure.
- Check the record: the number's longest finished gap and when it lasted.
What this page does not do: does not point to numbers to play — a long gap does not raise the chance in the next draw.
Current gaps of numbers
State after the latest draw of Mini Lotto, computed from the full history (7 315 draws). A gap is the number of draws in which a given number was not drawn. The random model assumes that each of the 42 numbers is drawn with the same probability p = 11.90%.
Longest current gap

threshold: 14.8 draws, source: model
Median current gap
5.0
expected: 7.4, of 42 numbers
Note. P(G ≥ g) says how often such a gap occurs, not that it is about to end. A number that has not been drawn for a long time has exactly the same chance in the next draw as any other.
Gap table
Sorted by the longest current gap by default. Clicking a header sorts the table. The percentile counts this number's finished gaps strictly shorter than the current one.

Method and source
Source: full history of draws (7 315 draws). The current gap is right-censored — it is unknown when it ends, so it enters neither the distribution of finished gaps nor the percentile.
Model: each number is drawn with probability p = 5/42 ≈ 11.90%. The gap between hits then follows a geometric distribution: P(G ≥ g) = (1 − p)g, and the expected gap length is (1 − p)/p = 7.4. P(G ≥ g) describes a single, pre-selected number. The longest gap among 42 numbers is extreme by definition, so its low P does not mean a departure from the model — with that many numbers one of them always had the longest gap.
The percentile is the share of a number's finished gaps strictly shorter than the current one. With few finished gaps this describes a handful of observations, not a test. This page runs no significance tests: gaps of different numbers in the same draws are not independent and a naive pooled test would understate the p-value.
