Why the draw is smaller

Probably wanted to keep it just under 2000 this time because the 3rd draw in Nov added some 700 odd extra numbers.

[Saskatchewan_Regina]

Probably wanted to keep it just under 2000 this time because the 3rd draw in Nov added some 700 odd extra numbers.

Then we should expect a 2500ish draw next time, maybe Dec 21

 

[ashu1710]

I would expect that. As for the dates, maybe 28th/30th instead of 21st/23rd. Cutoff could be in the 480s /470s depending on when the draw is scheduled next.
