45.9% of the drawn numbers were even (expected 48.6%). In 30 draws (29%) two consecutive numbers such as 12 and 13 came up together; chance expects that in 31% of draws.

On average 0.38 number from the previous draw was drawn again (expected 0.46). The longest gap of any number within the year belonged to 30, absent for 51 draws.

Numbers from the range 21–30 came up most often (133 hits), those from 31–35 least often (69). Such deviations are part of chance: they even out over many years, and none of them helps with the next draw.
