Reading the draws and working out what chance predicts.
In Lotto Plus 1 under the 6/47 + 1/47 · since Sep 2024 rules — 216 draws, 6 from 1–47.
Drawn 33 times in 216 draws against 27.6 expected, +1.11σ. Each draw is independent: after 0 draws away it is exactly as likely tonight as a number drawn yesterday. It has also come out as the bonus ball 5 times, counted separately.
Drawn 33 times in 216 draws · average wait 6.0 draws · longest completed wait 30 · drawn in the most recent draw
a completed wait — darker is longer the wait still running — a lower bound, not a finished gap
Sort a draw and 40 has a favourite seat — chance gives a large number the high positions more often. That is the shape of sorting, not of the machine.
Seen most often with these — chance gives every partner about 3.6 shared draws, and the leaders are simply the ones that came out ahead this time.
Never drawn alongside 1 of the other 46 numbers; chance expects about 1 such strangers by now. Every pair →
Under the crowd model, 40 is picked about 0.90× as often as an indifferent choice — 32nd most popular of 47. That changes nothing about whether it comes up, and everything about how many ways a jackpot on it would be shared.

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: 40 is drawn with probability 6/47 tonight whatever it did last week.
