Every number was expected about that many times after 8 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.

The longest wait in this draw

22 had not appeared for 5 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 ≈43k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 3,476 winners, 0% fewer than the 3.5k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
