Funny how this popped up right after we talked about it. The tell I'm looking for is a trip, particularly 333. I made a chart that compares the current numbers to the longest 5 dry spell I can see where we are in the cycle.
We are one step closer to the record. I'm not a maths person, but we have drawn 60 digits without a 5. As I understand it, the odds of not drawing any digit for 60 digits (where we are now) is 0.960 = 0.0018 - roughly 1 in 556.
P.S. The reason why I am tracking this is to to follow up on the theory that a triple (possibly off-registration) will often pop up during these long dry-spells, usually near the beginning but occasionally near the end.
