A few other ways to thing about the lottery question. What are the chances this sequence would occur in the entire history of the lottery to date? What are the chances that any sequence of multiples of 9 would get drawn? What are the chances that any sequence of multiples of any number would be drawn? What are the chances that any simple mathematical progression of numbers of any kind would be drawn, again in the history of the lottery not just on one day? I play an online game called Axis & Allies 1942 Online. It uses dice for resolving battles, and in a typical game you might roll many dozens of battles and several handfuls of virtual dice for each battle. We regularly see people go on Discord or the Steam forums to complain that some extraordinarily unlikely outcome happened to them. The thing is with thousands of people playing the game, typically in several games at a time, each rolling hundreds of handfuls of dice every day, one in 10,000 odds outcomes that seem extreme are going to happen on a daily basis to someone. Often several someones a day. Every now and them one of those people is likely to go and complain about it online, so IMHO this is an expected outcome. So far this argument doesn't seem to have convinced many of the 'victims' though.
