The longest wait in this draw

2 had not appeared for 25 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈6.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 + Bonus — 17,170 winners, 4% fewer than the 18k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
