Consecutive numbers being drawn
Some customers may avoid choosing consecutive numbers in a Mark Six draw as they think the possibility of consecutive numbers being drawn is relatively small. However, the consecutive numbers have come up in the Halloween Snowball draws history. Taking last year as an example, two groups of consecutive numbers were drawn, including rarely seen three consecutive numbers “4”, “5” and “6” and number “46” and number “47”. Details are:
