Number 34

In El Gordo de la Primitiva under the 5/54 + 1/9 · since Jan 2010 rules — 866 draws, 5 from 1–54.

105times drawn · chance expected 80 +2.91σ

34 looks unusual on its own — and unremarkable among 54 numbers

Drawn 105 times in 866 draws against 80.2 expected, +2.91σ. Testing all 54 numbers at once means about 0.5 should look this way by luck alone, so the threshold tightens to 1.9e-4 and this does not pass it.

What this cannot tell you

Nothing here predicts the next draw. A number’s history is a record of a fair machine’s past, and the machine keeps none of it: 34 is drawn with probability 5/54 tonight whatever it did last week.
