Reading the draws and working out what chance predicts.
In 2by2 under the 4/26 + 1/0 · Sep 2022 – Oct 2022 rules — 15 draws, 4 from 3–26 (an earlier era).
Drawn 3 times in 15 draws against 2.5 expected, +0.35σ. Each draw is independent: after 0 draws away it is exactly as likely tonight as a number drawn yesterday.
Drawn 3 times in 15 draws · average wait 7.0 draws · longest completed wait 8 · drawn in the most recent draw
a completed wait — darker is longer the wait still running — a lower bound, not a finished gap
Too few completed waits to plot a distribution for this number alone.
Sort a draw and 13 has a favourite seat — chance gives a small number the low positions more often. That is the shape of sorting, not of the machine.
Seen most often with these — chance gives every partner about 0.4 shared draws, and the leaders are simply the ones that came out ahead this time.
Never drawn alongside 15 of the other 23 numbers; chance expects about 16 such strangers by now. Every pair →
Under the crowd model, 13 is picked about 0.92× as often as an indifferent choice — 24th most popular of 24. 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: 13 is drawn with probability 4/24 tonight whatever it did last week.
