How is this calculated?

Winner counts and prize amounts come from the public draw results.

The nominal total is the number of winning bets multiplied by the amount assigned to that prize tier.

The number of unit bets is estimated from all winning bets and the theoretical probability of reaching any prize tier.

This is an estimate describing one draw, not official sales data or a forecast of future results.

After-draw report: rules and windows · 20.03.2004 22:00

Most matches: rule and number of earlier draws

Adjacent numbers — previous 13 draws

The set used draws from 04.02.2004 to 17.03.2004.

Main-number matches: 4 of 6.

Possible gross payout: 120.00 PLN.

We checked 4980 rule-window settings: 20 rules derived from existing analyses and the available windows from 2 to 250 draws. Different settings could produce the same number set. 10 settings reached the highest match count. For ties, we show the shortest window, then the first rule in a fixed order.

The highest result was selected only after the draw was known. This is a retrospective comparison, not evidence of predictive ability or an advantage.

20 analyses compared: the best window for each rule

Each row shows the best preceding-draw window for one rule. These are explicit 6-number selection rules derived from existing analyses; the statistics pages themselves do not pick tickets. The ranking and windows were selected after the result was known. A tie within a rule goes to the shorter window.

Analysis and selection rule	Previous draws	Matches	Possible gross payout
Adjacent numbers Frequency of appearing next to a consecutive number in one draw. Adjacent numbers — 13 preceding draws, excluding the evaluated draw	13	4 / 6	120.00 PLN

Which window worked best earlier for each analysis?

We compared 20 draws from 10.01.2004 22:00 to 17.03.2004 22:00. For each rule, the preceding-draw windows were 7, 14, 25, 50, 100, 250. The draw being evaluated did not influence window selection.

The mean is the best window chosen separately after each earlier result. The selected N maximizes total matches across all earlier results (ties: Euro matches, then the shorter window). The final column separately evaluates that selected N on the current draw.

Analysis and selection rule	Mean best N in hindsight	N selected before result	Earlier mean matches	Matches in this draw
Most frequent numbers	29.0	14	1.15	0 / 6
Least frequent numbers	17.5	14	1.15	1 / 6

Adjacent numbers	60.5	50	0.65	2 / 6
First and last numbers	38.8	25	1.10	0 / 6

A random selection has an expected 0.73 main-number matches per draw.

This is a historical comparison. Mean best N is fitted after each result and is not a rule for choosing the next set. One draw does not prove an advantage.

Four-rule comparison with a fixed 25-draw window

Each 6-number set was chosen using only the previous 25 draws. The current result was used solely for evaluation. This is a historical simulation, not a record of a ticket actually played.

Selection window for this result: 24.12.2003–17.03.2004.

Expected total matches for 6 random numbers against 6 drawn numbers over 20 draws: 14.69. This is a theoretical value, not the result of another ticket.

A fit to past draws does not improve the odds in the next draw. Amounts are hypothetical, gross and shown only for prize tiers with a known payout.
