To Recur or Not to Recur?
Here are the rates of recurrence for Powerball and Mega Millions.
It tells on average how many draws it takes for a ball # to recur or happen again by column.
To relate this to the more common ‘skip’, just subtract 1 from all these values.
We can see that Powerball Ball #1 in the first column should recur on average about once every 13.80 draws.
When Powerball Ball #1 dose hit, it's likely to hit in rapid succession or very frequently to keep up the average.
Watch for It...
