Sum Distribution →

The longest wait in this draw

17 had not appeared for 18 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    The rings take the ≈5.0M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 + Powerball — 1,110 winners, 1% more than the 1.1k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
