Number 19

In Bucko under the 5/41 · since May 2025 rules — 494 draws, 5 from 1–41.

82times drawn · chance expected 60 +2.99σ

1draws waiting · a wait this long: >99% for any number

6.1average wait between appearances · chance says 8.2

29longest completed wait · 88% chance of one at least that long

19 looks unusual on its own — and unremarkable among 41 numbers

Drawn 82 times in 494 draws against 60.2 expected, +2.99σ. Testing all 41 numbers at once means about 0.4 should look this way by luck alone, so the threshold tightens to 2.4e-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: 19 is drawn with probability 5/41 tonight whatever it did last week.
