This guide describes the Cash Pot data treatment used by TTLottoStats. It is a reference for reading the Analyzer and tools, not a prediction method.
The dataset
Each Cash Pot historical record contains a draw number, a date and five drawn numbers. Where available, a record also includes historical metadata such as the multiplier, jackpot and wins.
The tools use draw numbers and five-number sets to organize and compare recorded results. This gives each measurement a defined place in the dataset and makes it possible to study results across different periods.
Current selection range
Current TTLottoStats Cash Pot selections use numbers 1–20. The current five-from-20 model means that five numbers are drawn or selected from a set of 20 numbers, numbered 1 through 20. Number pickers, current tickets, Random Number Pickers, wheel pools and probability calculations use this model.
This current selection rule is separate from the range of values that can appear in retained historical records.
Historical values through 25
The retained historical dataset contains valid draws with values from 21 through 25. The tools keep those records when studying history, while current user selections remain limited to 1–20.
These dates describe what the current dataset shows. TTLottoStats does not currently have authoritative source documentation establishing them as official Cash Pot rule-change dates, so this guide does not make that claim.
Valid historical records
Before a record is used for historical research, it must satisfy these requirements:
- It has a valid numeric draw number.
- It has a valid ISO-style date in the form YYYY-MM-DD.
- It contains exactly five values.
- Every value is an integer from 1 through 25.
- The five values are unique.
A raw record is a stored database entry before these requirements are applied. In the current snapshot, there are 7,895 raw stored draw rows, while 7,877 records pass the stricter research rules. The difference reflects placeholder and anomalous records that should not be treated as normal five-number research draws; it does not by itself mean that an underlying lottery draw was fraudulent or officially invalid.
Known anomalies
The current database includes 14 all-zero placeholder rows and 4 rows containing repeated values. These are treated as data-quality issues, not as meaningful Cash Pot outcomes.
They are excluded from the usable research records because including placeholders or malformed five-number records could distort frequency, gap and other historical summaries. The research calculations therefore use complete records containing five unique values.
Historical research windows
The Cash Pot Analyzer lets the user choose one of these windows:
- Last 20 draws
- Last 50 draws
- Last 100 draws
- Last 250 draws
- Last 500 draws
- All available draws
When the window changes, the Analyzer recalculates its frequency, gap, pair and pattern measurements from that selected set of draws. A number’s frequency or current gap can therefore differ between a 20-draw view and an all-history view.
A window defines which recorded history is being described. It helps answer questions about a particular period, but it does not create a separate probability model for the next draw.
Multiplier data
Multiplier information is retained where it is available. The site recognizes multiplier values 1 through 4, while some historical records contain entries such as “No Data.” Coverage is incomplete, so the dataset does not provide a multiplier value for every record.
Current Cash Pot statistical calculations do not use multiplier data. Users should therefore not interpret the site’s frequency, gap, relationship or statistical-ranking results as measurements of multiplier behaviour. TTLottoStats does not currently provide multiplier strategy or multiplier probability research.
How to interpret the data
TTLottoStats measurements describe recorded draws within a stated dataset and, where applicable, a stated historical window.
The same distinction applies to frequency, gaps, pairs, patterns, historical similarity, carryover counts, statistical rankings and simulated past matches.
