What's up, TJ? Yeah, I can deal with those picks. But, if you were to leave it up to me and I had to select (5) picks, they'd look more like this: 153 867 023 507 338. In regards to your other post, I haven't played .50 in a very long time as $1.00 and up is where the money is just as you hinted at. I had no idea you were so close!!! This is a small world we live in!!! I will be out of town for a few days but, maybe we could actually meet when I get back. I'm in Cinco Ranch.

Hey Matchmaker,

Better luck next time.

I am playing the Mega tonight as it is getting higher. I buy my Tickets at Reba here in Katy.

Make no mistake about those playlists as they were part of my R D in studying DV's. I actually played a different state which catered to my system and was an easy win but, I entertained NC because this is where you're from. Now, you will see where others here will post similar and less numbers for comparable results which is good and may fit your budget. I can also post less numbers but, this will also further abandon the percentage of the str8 hit which is how I play.

I have never posted mor... [ More ]

Okay, there were two triples in this entire playlist. 3-3-3 and 4-4-4. I filtered them out intentionally and it came back to bite me...HARD! It's never good to take this sort of thing for granted but, what are the odds? At any rate, the DV's in positions (2) and (3) did exactly what I anticipated while position (1) remained stable.

It's a genuine crap shoot to play this style but, it really pays off BIG when you hit! Oh, well. The triplets took me out. Otherwise, it was a calculated str8 hit.... [ More ]

Let's analyze things. First of all, the half scale strategy did work but, I applied it on the wrong end of the scale in positions (2) and (3). In position (1), the scale was correct but, I missed on my non-consecutive numerals. Directional values are neither easy nor consistent and this is what I've really been working on lately. A compound system is needed to make this system work, as it will work, because the values have to change their positioning at some point.

This type of play will prod... [ More ]

Okay, here's what we'll do today. I'll put together a half scale number set and let you sift through them for what you might like. Now, they will be for the str8 hit but, you can toss it up to your liking okay. This will be fun because I've been working on very small numbers sets lately to determine consistecy percentages based on directional values. Check back in about an hour and they'll be for your stomping ground in NC.

Right now I take a tic tac and another workout to compare. I pick a bunch of numbers to try to hit the right one. I am still playing with it.

There are many styles of playing Pick 3 but, it's good to find one thing the numbers have in common frequently and just cater to that type of draw. Tell me what you're trying to do and I can tell you how to get there both effectively and efficiently.

Right now I play for fun as i'm still learning. I would love to venture into the business side one day when i'm more educated.

There's nothing wrong with playing for fun as long as you're having fun and it's not hurting you financially. Your mindset is the important thing here as you know what to expect based on what you do. Texas Cash Five and Two Step are great games to play and I wish you success with them! However, like I told onenumber, try saving up a few of those $10 bills and put together a really good set of numbers for one of those give me draws. Before you actually play, do some tracking and conduct dry runs... [ More ]

It's good to see that you do have an idea of the potential available here and that you're also venturing into the business side of it. Sticking with a group of numbers has its' advantages as does changing your numbers with the former requiring enough patience for your numbers to get drawn again. Changing them allows you to follow the numerical changes with the possibility of hitting much sooner.

Maybe you could think about just saving up that $5 and playing really good on a give me draw. This... [ More ]

as far as pick 3, it was my first game to play and with the help of a lot of nice people here was fun. my problem is i budget and it's hard to win with a $10 limit per game. seems like i was always playing pick 2 of 3 though.

i'm only playing pick 3 with paper pencil now i devote my budget to texas cash five and two step.

but if i had to choose from your choices, i would go with the fun answer. my few wins were put back into the lotto kitty

Matchmaker,

I would like to make this a business/profit maker. Some weeks I'm dead on and can make a nice little profit, other weeks I go dry. I could make more than I do but I change my numbers from drawing to drawing and I miss out on a lot of hits because of this. I tell myself that I'm going to stick with a group of numbers but then I always change them and miss out on getting a hit. I would like to get more hits with 10 numbers or less. I don't like to play a lot of numbers, I don't want... [ More ]

Yeah, I believe a fair percentage of players started out in this same way including myself. Actually, my dad got me going on this when he presented ways of getting the hit with a reasonable play list. Like you, I got excited about the payout when I saw what the cost was for me to be successful at it. The rest is history as I've devoted myself to these games full time because it's very well worth the effort.

I do appreciate you taking the time to share a few honest thoughts regarding this thre... [ More ]
