Money: Those unlucky numbers just won't come up
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It was another bad week for unlucky numbers last Saturday. The most common winning number to date, 5, came up again, its fourteenth appearance in the frame plus four bonuses, and 28 came up for the second week running, this time as the bonus ball, making 12 wins and five bonus appearances, while 30 won again to push into third place with 13 wins and two bonuses to its credit.
None of the low scoring balls made any progress last week, with 39 stuck on just two wins, and 13 on just four wins, followed by 20 and 36 with just five winning appearances. None of the longest losing sequences was broken, either, with 27 last winning 21 weeks ago now, followed by 1, 46, 20, 8 and 10.
My own regular punt, on 1, 3, 6, 13, 34, and 46, has yielded just two bonus balls and no outright winners at all in the last nine weeks, and must now be long overdue to produce me at least one winning number.
