This one is showing all the hallmarks of a jimmy4164. A little amateurish. Perhaps from the rust of not posting. But still the hallmarks are there...

1) Post a link to something obscure/out of date.

2) Argue. Find something someone said in another post to establish the point is valid. (Jimmy4164 was so good it led to a hit Sesame Street song, One of these things is not like the other).

jimmy4164 loved the tune but never understood the lyrics.

3) Continue posting drivel about what gr... [ More ]

The thing about it, RJOh, is that the profit turned (if any) while applying this method will be the same every time so long as the player doesn't change their combo count or the amount wagered. With a good list of combos started at the right time, and, with cooperation from the draws, a player can actually double their money. Building up the bankroll affords the player to eventually start progressive betting i.e. doubling their cost while also doubling profits. Likewise, double the amount is los... [ More ]

If your claim of having the best system ever made in another thread is true then you're probably doing as well as can be expected already.

Want to double it guaranteed?

Fold it in half....

Gary, I wasn't mocking the idea of your two-page thread, okay. I was basically letting readers know that the thread was two pages and that what I wanted to highlight was on the second page. The things which I highlighted were also not meant to mock or portray you in a negative regarding people, either. Rather, I was actually showing how I was in the same boat with you in terms of how you felt about what your were trying to do for people. Make sense now? This thread wasn't designed to call people...

My pick 3 bankroll is currently $20 bucks for the month LL. Can you really help me to double it? Of course its not really $20 bucks, probably around $40 bucks as I find quarters seem to multiply in my house, and I tend to spend them.

Just for the record LL, I mostly agree with everything you say 98%.

That's very true RJOH. I mention it here only to give the OP some insight as to why he has an 8 page thread and (oh my!) I only have 2 page thread. I've come to understand there are trolls here who care nothing for answers to their questions, their goal is to see how far others will go to meet their criteria.

Now Lucky Loser sounds like a person who is interested in helping people. And while I don't find it palatable to start a thread calling people losers, some do enjoy self flagellation.... [ More ]

One particular poster needed something, so I wrote the program, gave him the data, which led to needing additional data. This went on several times until one Friday I spent no less than 18 hours rewriting, adding subs, reformatting the output, and everything in between.

Don't feel like the only member ever taken advantage of, once you write a program for someone with no regards for your time or effort, they too have no regards for your time or effort. They will continue to hound you to do ev... [ More ]

I concur with Garyo1954. If you play the lottery, you are going in full-well knowing you might lose more than you will win. I, for one, play for the thrill of it and the hope that I might win. The trick is to budget and spend what you can afford. If you think you have a gambling problem, immediately quit and seek help that is all. People need to stop whining about losing money blah blah. No one is holding a gun to your head and asking you to gamble, and quit preaching to us about it either. I am... [ More ]

Without reading your entire windbag approach to posting.....

1) There is nothing to add to, If you are spending more than you win, you're a loser, which is what the title of this thread says. Certainly there NOTHING THAT REQUIRES TWO THREADS with copious amount of repeated text to say that.

2) The length of a thread has nothing to do with the pertinent amount of information in it. If I get a valid, clear point in one post, I have no use in making post after post after post, or thread after... [ More ]

Garyo, thanks for the Cliffs Notes. Listen, everyone understands the 'more in but less back' deal but, the idea here was showing how to plug in numbers specific to a set of combos in question to be played...or not played, it'll still shed light on the actual outcome in terms of finances. I agree with you about some people not caring about what they spend/lose and all...they just enjoy playing but, there are people here that do care and can also appreciate being able to apply a formula to anyone...

Congratulations, LuckyLoser

This proposal brings back memories somewhat of lotterybraker's Dash for Cash . A small degree of tweaking needs to be done to insure the validity of one's predicted numbers. I remember before Pick3 Guy taking a lot of credit for hits that he actually didn't pay for upfront and so have others (I won't mention any names). But please encourage lakerben and Miracle to join in the fun. I'm sure they each have a lot to contribute.

BTW: I'm in, wouldn't miss it... [ More ]

For those of you who don't want to read all that, here's clift's notes:

If you are spending more than you win, your system fails the Bankroll Litmus Test.

The End

Unless....

You enjoy playing and are not trying to make a living at Pick 3.

You play out of a change bucket, which is more or less coffee money that is laying around gathering dust. Yes, I have. I've actually, truly, and without guilt, bought lottery tickets with rolls of pennies, nickels and occasionally dimes. And so... [ More ]

Okay, rather than go through all the rigmarole again with all the details, I'm simply going to refer those interested in this study back to the original link and test. This actually took place, coincidentally, about a year ago this same month. The test was to apply the total cost to run a set of combos for a given amount of days...in this case, (10) ten days. I opted to apply the least cost which was the 3-way boxed hit for the $80 payout. Anything more, in terms of additional hits, would simply... [ More ]
