Sum and shape

111

The numbers add up to 111 — the 58th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 105. Side-by-side numbers: 21–22, 22–23. 42% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

22 had not appeared for 6 draws. A number waits about 8 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 ≈93k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 867 winners, 11% more than the 780 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
