Colorado Pick 3 — midday vs evening
Three digits, 0–9, drawn by the Colorado Lottery since April 2013. Evening-only until December 2016, when a Midday draw was added — so the two streams cover different spans. Colorado runs no 4-digit game. Outcome space: 1,000 combinations.

Reading this honestly
A game’s daily streams are independent drawings, even though they share a date. Differences you see here are sample noise — no stream “runs hotter” than another.

Spreads this small (typically < 1 pt) are exactly what independent random sampling produces. The streams are separate drawings with the same odds — this is a sanity check, not a signal.
