What the history actually says

• Over the last 103 draws, 3 came up 59 times and 5 came up 42. A fair draw would average 51.5 each, and a spread this size is what randomness looks like at this sample size.
• The full spread scores 4.4 on a fairness test that would need to exceed 16.9 before the draw looked biased. It does not. This is evidence the draw is even — not a reason to prefer any number in it.
• A number that came up in one draw came up again in the next one 50.2% of the time. Any number at all appears 50% of the time. Those two being the same is the answer to "is it hot?" and to "is it due?" — the draw has no memory of what it did last week.

Every draw is independent. Nothing on this page makes any number more or less likely to come up next — it describes what has already happened, and shows that the draw behaves the way a fair one should.
