Which Thunderball numbers come up most often?

Over the last 98 settled Thunderball draws, 16 appeared 20 times, against an average of 12.56 per number. That gap is ordinary variation at this sample size and does not make 16 more likely in the next draw.

Are Thunderball numbers ever "due"?

No. Measured over 485 number-to-next-draw pairs of real Thunderball history, a number that appeared in one draw appeared again in the next one 13.4% of the time, against 12.8% for any number at all. Those figures match, which is what it looks like when a draw has no memory of previous results.

Is the Thunderball draw fair?

On the last 98 draws the spread of numbers scores 32.3 on a chi-square test against a 53.4 threshold at 95% confidence. It is consistent with an even draw.

Can Thunderball results be predicted?

No. Each draw is independent of every draw before it, so no analysis of past results carries information about the next one. Frequency and gap figures describe what has already happened and nothing else.

Consistent with a fair draw

Chi-square 32.3 against a 53.4 threshold at 95% confidence, over 39 numbers. The spread sits well inside what an even draw produces. One fair draw in twenty crosses that line by chance, so a single reading either way is a prompt to keep watching rather than a finding.

Is a number ever “due”?

13.4%of numbers came up again in the very next draw

12.8%is how often any number comes up at all

Measured across 485 number-to-next-draw pairs in this lottery’s own history. Those two figures being the same is the answer to both “it’s hot” and “it’s due”: the machine has no memory of last week.

Over the last 98 draws, 16 came up 20 times and 22 came up 6. A fair draw would average 12.6 each, and a spread this size is what randomness looks like at this sample size.
The full spread scores 32.3 on a fairness test that would need to exceed 53.4 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 13.4% of the time. Any number at all appears 12.8% 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.
