The Melate history spans more than 2,100 draws held from December 9, 2007 to the present day. Over all that time thousands of numbers have been drawn, the jackpot has surpassed 639 million pesos at its highest accumulated point, and some interesting statistical patterns have emerged. In this guide we review the history of Melate, its record-breaking figures, and how to look up any previous draw.
How long has Melate existed?
Melate is one of the most popular draws run by Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública. In its current format of 6 numbers from 1 to 56, the historical series we record at MelateBot begins with Draw 2088, on December 9, 2007, and runs up to the most recent draws of 2026, with more than 2,136 draws documented. Each one has its own entry with the winning numbers, the bonus number, and the jackpot.
The biggest jackpot in Melate history
Because the jackpot accumulates whenever nobody matches all six numbers, very large top prizes have built up over the years. The highest accumulated jackpot in our historical series was recorded in Draw 2677 (July 31, 2013), with a jackpot of $639,500,000 MXN. Accumulated jackpots of hundreds of millions of pesos have recurred in different eras, always after several weeks without a top-prize winner.
The most and least frequent numbers in history
If we add up every appearance across the more than 2,100 draws, the number that has come out most often as a main number and the one that has come out least are separated, across the whole series, by very few appearances relative to the total draws played —which is what you would expect from a game of chance— and that first place changes hands as new draws are played. That confirms that, in the long run, every number tends to come out a similar number of times. You can see the always-current ranking in our guide to the most frequent Melate numbers.
What fraction of all possible combinations have we seen?
Melate has 32,468,436 possible six-number combinations from 1 to 56. Across more than 2,136 documented draws since 2007, 2,136 distinct winning combinations have been played — each one a single expression of that same space of possibilities. That amounts to roughly 0.0066% of all possible combinations: less than one in fifteen thousand. Put another way, if the draw continued at its current pace (three drawings a week), covering every possible combination would take more than 200,000 years. However long the history looks, it is still a tiny sample against the true size of the game.
How many times each number "should" come up, in theory
Each draw pulls 6 numbers out of 56, so the probability of any given number appearing in a single drawing is 6/56, or about 10.71%. Multiplied across the more than 2,136 documented draws, the expected number of appearances for any individual number, if the process were perfectly uniform, comes out to around 229 times. That is a theoretical value, not an actual observed count: in practice, every number deviates a little from that figure through normal statistical variation, and that deviation — not any preference by the draw — is exactly what separates the most-seen number from the least-seen one in our ranking. The more time passes, the closer each number drifts toward that theoretical average, though never exactly.
That is precisely why "hot" and "cold" number lists show such small differences after thousands of draws: if the process were predictable, those differences would be much larger or much more consistent over time. That they stay small, and that the top spot keeps changing hands with every new draw, is exactly the signature of a genuinely random process.
How do you look up a historical Melate draw?
At MelateBot you have two ways to review Melate's past:
- By draw number: each draw has its own entry in the blog archive, with the six numbers, the bonus number, the date, and that date's jackpot. If you search, for example, for "Melate 3411", you will find the exact result of that draw.
- By statistics: in the statistics and frequency section you can see how each number has behaved throughout the entire history.
What does the history tell us about how to play?
The history is a tool for analysis and entertainment, not for prediction. Reviewing past draws helps you understand the typical behavior of combinations —for example, that the sum of the six numbers usually hovers around 171, or that it is rare for many consecutive numbers to come out— but it does not let you anticipate the next result. Each draw is independent: the balls have no memory. If you want to learn the basic rules, check out our guide to how to play Melate.
Revancha, Revanchita and Retro over time
Alongside Melate, its history includes the sister draws: Revancha and Revanchita (which are played with the same numbers, without a bonus number) and Melate Retro (6 numbers from 1 to 39, drawn on Tuesdays and Saturdays). All of them also have their own historical archive of results at MelateBot.
How to read the historical data wisely
When you browse decades of results, it is tempting to see meaning in every streak. A number that has been "due" for many draws —a long gap, or rezago— is no more likely to appear in the next draw than any other. Likewise, the balance between even and odd numbers, or between high and low numbers, tends to even out over thousands of draws, but in any single draw it can swing widely. Treat the history as a portrait of randomness over time, not as a roadmap to the future. The value of the archive is in understanding the game and enjoying the story it tells, not in chasing a system that does not exist.
What "hot" and "cold" numbers really mean
When reviewing the history, it is common to find lists of "hot" numbers (those that have appeared most often in a period) and "cold" ones (those that have come up least). It is worth understanding these labels well: they describe what has already happened, not what is going to happen. A number being "hot" does not mean it is on a streak, nor that a "cold" one is about to come up because it is overdue. The balls have no memory and do not know how many times they have appeared before.
The historical data itself confirms it: even the most-seen and least-seen numbers of the entire series are separated by only a handful of appearances across more than two thousand draws, and that first place changes hands as new draws are played — check the current figure in the most frequent Melate numbers. That closeness is exactly what you would expect from chance over time. That is why "hot" and "cold" are useful for describing the past and for entertainment, but they are not a guide to predicting the next draw.
The history and the gambler's fallacy
The most common temptation when looking at so many results is to think that a number or combination "is due". That idea is called the gambler's fallacy: believing that what happened before changes the probability of what comes next. It does not. Every Melate draw starts from scratch and all valid combinations have exactly the same chance, no matter how many times they have appeared or not in the past.
Using the history responsibly means taking it for what it is: a record to inform yourself and enjoy the game's history, not a calendar of what will happen. It is not worth overspending in pursuit of patterns or "streaks", because no past pattern improves your chances. Always play for entertainment and within a budget you can afford.
How to explore the history year by year and draw by draw
The best way to understand Melate's history is to see it for yourself. In the blog archive you can go through the draws one by one and open each draw's page, with its six numbers, the additional number, the date and that day's jackpot. Going through several consecutive years helps you notice how results spread out over time and how jackpots build up after weeks without a top-prize winner.
If you prefer an overview, the statistics and frequency section summarizes the behavior of each number across the whole series. Combining both views —the detail of each draw and the statistical overview— gives you the most complete picture of the history, always keeping in mind that it is informational and entertainment material, not a prediction tool.
Runs of consecutive numbers across the history
Another pattern that catches the eye when reviewing many draws is the occasional appearance of three or more consecutive numbers in the same result — for example, 22, 23, and 24 together. Among the 32,468,436 possible combinations, a run of three consecutive numbers appears in just 3.68% of them, so seeing one in the history is uncommon but not surprising: across more than 2,136 draws, it is mathematically reasonable for that to have happened several times purely by chance. Seeing one does not mean the draw favors runs, any more than a long absence means one is "due" to appear.
The same logic applies to combinations with no consecutive numbers at all, which are the majority — around 55% of all possible combinations. If you notice that most historical draws have no consecutive numbers, it is not because the draw avoids them: it is simply the expected proportion when you choose 6 numbers at random out of 56.
What to do with all this information
If the history does not predict anything, what is it good for? Two honest things: understanding the game and enjoying it. Knowing the record jackpot, watching how prizes accumulate draw after draw, or noticing that the split between even and odd numbers stays stable over time does not bring you any closer to the top prize, but it does give you real context on a game that could otherwise feel like a black box. Use the archive and the statistics for what they are — a public, verifiable log — and let the decision of how much to play depend on your budget, not on any pattern you think you have found.
If you have never explored the archive, a good starting point is to compare two randomly chosen draws separated by several years, and notice how similar they look in their general shape — a mix of even and odd numbers, no long runs — even though their exact numbers are completely different. That consistency in shape, draw after draw, is the best visual evidence that the mechanism behind Melate has no memory and no preferences.
