In short

31 has come up most often, 302 times. Each number averages about 268 over 2,409 draws, and whichever number happens to lead normally finishes around 35 ahead. 31 is 34 ahead, so this is an ordinary spread rather than a streak. 45 has come up least, 228 times.

The statistics behind that

Expected count 267.7, standard deviation 15.4. The leader sits at 2.23 standard deviations against an expected maximum of 2.28 for 54 numbers; a lead at least this large arises by chance about 42% of the time. Goodness of fit to a uniform draw: chi-square 68.3 on 53 degrees of freedom, p = 0.077. How we calculate it.

Point at a bar — or tap one, or press the arrow keys — to see which number it is.

How far each number is above or below its average of 268 appearances. The shaded band is the normal range — where 19 of every 20 numbers land. 4 of 54 stick out, and about 3 normally do. The numbers printed on the chart are the highest, the lowest and anything outside the band.

Most and least drawn are 74 apart. For 54 numbers over 2,409 draws that gap normally comes out around 70, so this one is about what you would expect.

Why the count starts in 2006

Lotto Texas has changed how many balls it draws, or from how many, 3 times in the draws we hold. Counting across a change mixes two different games — a ball that did not exist yet cannot be behind. So everything above covers only the stretch since April 26, 2006, when this game settled on six numbers from 1 to 54.

How we calculate all of this.

Frequently asked questions

Do hot and cold numbers predict anything?
No. The gap between the most and least drawn number here is 74 appearances, which is about what 2,409 draws produce on their own. The table is worth looking at; it is not worth betting on.
Why do your frequencies differ from other sites?
Mostly because we only count draws since the game last changed its set of balls: counting across a change mixes two different games. Lotto Texas is published by a single official feed, and every draw here is that feed's record; our sources page says which.
What does the shaded band on the chart mean?
It marks the normal range — where 19 out of 20 numbers land when every one is equally likely. With 54 numbers on the chart, two or three sticking out above or below it is the usual picture rather than a sign of anything.
How far back does this Lotto Texas data go?
Our full history runs back to November 14, 1992 — 3,812 draws. The frequency table on this page uses the 2,409 draws since April 26, 2006, because that is when the game last changed to drawing six numbers from 1 to 54. Browse every draw by year.
