Times drawn before — chance expected 110 of each

2104times

Every number was expected about that many times after 2,868 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.

From the draw just before (4 January 2025): nothing carried over. Chance says 40% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (4% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

27 had not appeared for 9 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 ≈17k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 1,179 winners, 35% more than the 871 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
