Its nearest twin

From the draw just before (14 July 2012): nothing carried over. Chance says 63% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

10 had not appeared for 21 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 ≈252k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 6,865 winners, 0% more than the 6.9k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
