In the UK49s lottery, some players like to use overdue numbers, because these numbers haven’t been picked in recent draws. This is simple and easy to understand: if a number hasn’t come up for a long time, maybe it’s "due" to appear soon. But is this really true, or just another lottery myth?
Many people look at the last 100 draws and choose numbers that haven’t shown up at all or very rarely. They hope that because these numbers have been "cold," they are more likely to get picked next. It sounds smart, but every ball in the 49s draw container same chance every for each ball—no matter when it last appeared.
Some mix overdue balls with hot numbers or use even-odd and high-low patterns. It doesn’t promise a win, but it can feel more organized.
Overdue numbers are the ones that haven’t been drawn in a long time. For example, if a number hasn’t come up in the last 30 or 40 draws, it’s called overdue.
Cold numbers, on the other hand, are the ones that don’t appear very often, even over many draws. They may still show up once in a while but are not picked as often as hot numbers.
So, while both are “less frequent,” overdue numbers are based on how long it’s been since the last time, and cold numbers are based on how rarely they get picked overall.
