Number 14

In Cash 5 under the 5/45 · since Oct 2023 rules — 1,089 draws, 5 from 1–45.

92times drawn · chance expected 121 −2.80σ

55longest completed wait · 15% chance of one at least that long

14 looks unusual on its own — and unremarkable among 45 numbers

Drawn 92 times in 1,089 draws against 121.0 expected, −2.80σ. Testing all 45 numbers at once means about 0.5 should look this way by luck alone, so the threshold tightens to 2.2e-4 and this does not pass it.

What this cannot tell you

Nothing here predicts the next draw. A number’s history is a record of a fair machine’s past, and the machine keeps none of it: 14 is drawn with probability 5/45 tonight whatever it did last week.
