Lotto Game Statistics

The Lotto is a game with a long history, and over the years numerous methods have been developed to choose numbers. In practice, in order for the stake placed to result in a win, players try to identify optimal playing criteria. Some of these criteria are purely mathematical and consist of selecting, from the 90 numbers in play, groups of numbers that are considered more likely than others. Many of these methods are based on statistical calculations. The purpose of this page is to present some of the most commonly used statistics in the game.

The probability of number extraction in Lotto

In the Lotto game, for each wheel, five numbers are drawn from a set of ninety. From a mathematical point of view, each number therefore has a 1 in 18 chance of being drawn: 90/5 = 18, and this probability does not change with each draw. This means that even if a number has just been drawn, it has the same probability—1 in 18—of being drawn again in the next draw.

Lotto Frequency and Overdue Numbers

Even taking the above considerations into account, the history of the game shows that some numbers appear only after dozens or hundreds of draws, while others occur more frequently. Many Lotto enthusiasts closely follow statistics on frequencies and overdue numbers. Our website provides up-to-date statistics on:

overdue Overdue single numbers for each wheel
frequencies frequencies of a single number for each wheel
overdue number frequencies frequencies and overdue numbers for the national wheel

Classic Lotto Game Statistics

Some number combinations have become “classic,” meaning they are combinations commonly sought by players. These include twins, endings (cadenze), decades, figures, radicals, complementary numbers, symmetric numbers, diametrical numbers, and reversible numbers. On this page we provide some indications on the statistics of endings, decades, figures, and radical quartets for the ambo.

Endings (Cadenze)

Endings are ten series of nine ambi that share the same final digit. In the Lotto game, ten endings can be formed as shown below:

Endings 0	10	20	30	40	50	60	70	80	90
Endings 1	1	11	21	31	41	51	61	71	81
Endings 2	2	12	22	32	42	52	62	72	82
Endings 3	3	13	23	33	43	53	63	73	83
Endings 4	4	14	24	34	44	54	64	74	84
Endings 5	5	15	25	35	45	55	65	75	85
Endings 6	6	16	26	36	46	56	66	76	86
Endings 7	7	17	27	37	47	57	67	77	87
Endings 8	8	18	28	38	48	58	68	78	88
Endings 9	9	19	29	39	49	59	69	79	89

Decades (Decine)

Decades are nine series of ten ambi made up of numbers from the same ten-number range. In the Lotto game, nine decades can be formed as shown below:

Decades 0	90	01	02	03	04	05	06	07	08	09
Decades 1	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18	19
Decades 2	20	21	22	23	24	25	26	27	28	29
Decades 3	30	31	32	33	34	35	36	37	38	39
Decades 4	40	41	42	43	44	45	46	47	48	49
Decades 5	50	51	52	53	54	55	56	57	58	59
Decades 6	60	61	62	63	64	65	66	67	68	69
Decades 7	70	71	72	73	74	75	76	77	78	79
Decades 8	80	81	82	83	84	85	86	87	88	89

Figures (Figure)

Figures are the nine series of ten ambi made up of numbers that are nine units apart from each other. In the Lotto game, nine figures can be formed as shown below:

Figures 1	1	10	19	28	37	46	55	64	73	82
Figures 2	2	11	20	29	38	47	56	65	74	83
Figures 3	3	12	21	30	39	48	57	66	75	84
Figures 4	4	13	22	31	40	49	58	67	76	85
Figures 5	5	14	23	32	41	50	59	68	77	86
Figures 6	6	15	24	33	42	51	60	69	78	87
Figures 7	7	16	25	34	43	52	61	70	79	88
Figures 8	8	17	26	35	44	53	62	71	80	89
Figura 9	9	18	27	36	45	54	63	72	81	90

Radicals (Radicali)

Radicals are eight series of four numbers composed as follows: the first number ranges from one to eight, the second is its “zeroed” number, the third is its twin, and the fourth is its ending. In the Lotto game, nine figures can be formed as shown below:

Radicals 1	1	10	11	19
Radicals 2	2	20	22	29
Radicals 3	3	30	33	39
Radicals 4	4	40	44	40
Radicals 5	5	50	55	59
Radicals 6	6	60	66	69
Radicals 7	7	70	77	79
Radicals 8	8	80	88	89
