<p>I don’t think I won…</p>

849

<p>Let’s see if I won…</p>

<p>Too bad…</p>

850

<p>Argh. Didn’t win again…</p>

851

<p>I won… I think…</p>

852

<p>I Win!!!</p>

853

<p>I WIN!!! (insurance five!)</p>

854

<p>853 857 859 863 877 881 883 887</p>

<p>Lots of winners clustered together coming up…</p>

855

<p>I won.
Almost.
It hurts to be off by 2!</p>

856

<p>fizix…yes, you were late by 2.</p>

<p>But you were also early by 2.</p>

<p>The next one (857) wins. And if you get that, you’ll still be off by 2 because that winner is just 2 ahead of the next prime number (859) winner. If you’re late by 2 to that one (at 861), you’ll be early by 2 for the next prime winner (at 863).</p>

<p>We are in the middle of prime number heaven. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel. Same thing happens again at 877 through 887 – four winners inside of 11 numbers.</p>
