Lotto 6/49 hot and cold wheel, tested on every draw

Every draw, take the 5 numbers drawn most often in the previous 10 draws and the 5 drawn least often — 10 numbers — and buy the 14-line wheel that guarantees 3rd prize if all 6 winning numbers are among them. Played against every Lotto 6/49 draw from #11 to #4461 (2026-10-21), that is 4,451 draws and 62,314 lines bought.

times all 6 winning numbers were inside the 10

The guarantee never came into play. In all 4,451 draws, the 6 winning numbers were never once all inside the 10 that this rule picked — so the 3rd prize guarantee, which only applies when they are, was never owed. Everything won below was won without it.

A number shown faded was not drawn that time. "In the draw" counts how many of the draw's own 6 numbers were inside the 10 picked — the guarantee only applies at 6 of 6. Prize tiers are worked out from the numbers; this page does not show prize money, because the operator's per-draw amounts are not held on this site.

The same 10 numbers for draw #4462 — the one being drawn next

Every row above is a draw that has already happened. The same rule applied to the 10 most recent draws gives 10 numbers for the draw that has not been made yet, and the 14 lines that go with them.
