Every number was expected about that many times after 910 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

45 had not appeared for 43 draws. A number waits about 9 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 ≈2.2M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 11,638 winners, 4% fewer than the 12k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
