Empty oysters of experience. No pearls.

Every lottery , every game , must make them Is the law in my state, must operate at profit. Powerball , mega millions, any game with 6 or more balls, requires blind luck and persistence. I may be little off with calculations , but putting each possible winning number on a 1 inch square sheet , and laying them beside each other. Will cover somewhere around 17 acres. That s 144 bucks per square foot . would you pick your 5 square inches 25 bucks, in your... [ More ]

Absolutely, that is how my charts are born. Especially where I occasionally have red hot plays (D_A picks of the week) in the charts, that is all those stats mixed with due sums. With the now defunct Versabet those stats are only a few clicks away. I would be completely lost without it, and the state charts wouldn't exist. Thanks for sharing ways of looking at things, this is cool. I appreciate everyone taking the time to share their insight.

great info from EVERYONE - thanks.

Anyone look at repeats in any way?

repeating digits - single digits, pairs, and all three digits

and the opposite, missing digits/pairs

then match or cross reference with sums

Yes, you are correct. But the triples don't happen that often so I don't worry about the RS 0. I mostly stick with the singles at

72% of the time. There have been only 3 triples in the past year in my state and that is the only place I play.

Since there is a 000 wouldn't that be 10 roots and 28 sums

Why not consider the NEXT sum instead of DUE sum

i look at sums and longest out/overdue also i find it very helpful to look at what hit 1 week and 1 month before. that information i find very helpful in missouri. also i keep track of QP's they form patterns in missouri also. good luck

None taken, I also track root sums, and I agree don't be afraid to experiment.

I like to track the root sums. It's a lot easier keeping track of 9 roots than 27 sums. No offense, Sully.

Don't be afraid to experiment, if you try out a new idea or method do at least 6 months of back testing. 12 months is better.

You want to find a system that works consistently over the long term. Hot for 4 months, cold for 2 is no good.

Thanks Dead-Aim

Most folks here know that I play sums and pairs.

My advice is track your numbers, find a way to do it that you will understand.

Keeps your picks to 10 numbers or under, you get good at that, your half way home.

I always play my favorite str. and boxed, it's always the first number I post in the Michigan thread.

My lower tier numbers I usually box for .50 cents.

Sometimes if you have to, walk away for awhile, take a break for a few days or even weeks.

Hey All,

Thought it is high time for a thread where everyone contributes their pearls of wisdom they have noticed while trying to put a lasso on these games so they can make a few bucks. I will start with a few that I have noticed over time.

1) As most know, most drawings will average a double every 3rd drawing.

2) I often find 2 doubles in a row will throw a 3rd. When that happens, I find that to be a triple trigger. If you get a whole flurry of doubles. a triple is likely to be seen w... [ More ]
