Pick a daily volume to see how the same table behaves on a quiet day versus a busy one. Volume is the only thing that moves this curve — more stake burns through the odds faster and pulls the jackpot earlier in the day. Hover an option to read its share before switching.
How much is actually in the pot at each hour, for whichever volume the stake buttons above are set to. Contributions accrue evenly, so the line is straight and volume only changes its slope. Hover it to read any hour exactly. This is the amount on offer, not the amount likely to be won — how likely each hour is comes from the chart above.
The same curve read as numbers, with every preset volume side by side. Each column is one daily volume and sums to 100%, because the jackpot has to go before the day closes. The highlighted column is your design stake and the shaded rows are the final window.
The pool is the seed plus everything contributed so far, so it climbs steadily through the day and the amount actually won is decided by when the jackpot drops. That makes this the hit-time curve read on a money axis rather than a new piece of maths.

Every figure is a closed-form result, not a simulation: because each unit of stake is an independent trial, the hit distribution is exact and the final-window share reduces to share = exp(−c · stake) with c fixed by the table's shape. That is why one table covers a stake band rather than a single volume, and why changing the daily volume moves the whole hit-time curve without a single odds value changing.
