Every number was expected about that many times after 2,557 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.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈29k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 1,702 winners, 14% more than the 1.5k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
