The longest wait in this draw

61 had not appeared for 29 draws. A number waits about 14 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 ≈4.8M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 7,217 winners, 9% fewer than the 8.0k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
