The longest wait in this draw

42 had not appeared for 35 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.4M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 14,590 winners, 2% fewer than the 15k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
