Every number was expected about that many times after 836 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

The longest wait in this draw

15 had not appeared for 7 draws. A number waits about 9 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    The rings take the ≈3.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 + Mega Ball — 9,039 winners, 4% more than the 8.7k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
