Every Ohio draw game

We hold 29,323 Ohio draws in total. Odds come from each game's published number matrix, not from a model; where a game's lower tiers are pari-mutuel we show odds only rather than invent a value per dollar.

Which numbers come up most in Pick 3?

Across 5,695 Pick 3 draws on its current 0–9 number pool (since 2011), the most-drawn numbers are 1 (1826), 3 (1724), 0 (1717), 8 (1705), 7 (1704). The least-drawn are 5 (1697), 4 (1691), 2 (1684), 6 (1683), 9 (1654).

The commonest number leads the rarest by about 10% — and that means nothing. Across this many draws ordinary random variation produces spreads of roughly this size; a fair game would almost never land every number on an identical count. No number is "due", and none of this predicts the next draw. We only count draws from the game's current number pool, because earlier draws used a different one and mixing them invents a pattern that was never there. We tested whether hot numbers actually win.
