🎯 MISSOURI LOTTERY — HOW RANDOM IS THIS?

Those numbers definitely have an interesting pattern! Let's line up your dates and results and look at why you're calling them heavy repeats.

🔥 What stands out?

All three numbers use the exact same digits: 3, 4, and 7—but in different orders!

• 473 → 4-7-3
• 347 → 3-4-7
• 437 → 4-3-7

That's a strong pattern to notice when tracking Missouri Pick 3 results. The digits are repeating, while their positions change.

🎲 How rare is it?

Missouri Pick 3 has 1,000 possible straight combinations, and each drawing is independent. MO Lottery

If the first number has three different digits, the probability that a later draw matches those same digits in any order is 6 out of 1,000, or 0.6%.

For two later draws to both use those same three digits in any order, the probability is:

0.006 × 0.006 = 0.000036, or 0.0036% — about 1 in 27,778.

That's an interesting pattern! This calculation assumes the three draws were selected in advance and that we're looking specifically for the same three digits in any order.

🏆 The winners-list takeaway

473 → 347 → 437

• Same three digits.
• Different arrangements.
• A clear example of a digit-family repeat worth documenting in your tracking chart.

The important distinction: this pattern is unusual for those particular draws, but it doesn't make another permutation more likely in the next drawing.

My suggestion: Track all six permutations of 3-4-7—347, 374, 437, 473, 734, and 743—and compare them with actual results. That will help you measure how often this pattern returns without assuming it's due.
