Combined with having the correct numbers in your pool, ..yes it's more than enough to win... Probability Math ensures you pick the most viable numbers,.. Combinatorical wheels arranges them to win the jackpot..!!

Did I read this right? You want to post somewhere between 142.5k and 324k sets of numbers? Generated by Excel? What a mess...

How will you narrow that dataset down to something folks can play? Some kind of wheel, filters or what exactly...

Good Luck...

Nice try again... 2 numbers out of 27....no better than random...sum 154....your sum total over 191 ?..very unlikely.

Forget about the 94% This is not as easy as you thought. Don't rack your brain on these games. Stick to the better odds games, which isn't much better.

Pick 4 is a great game to make hundreds of thousands of dollars if a str is hit odds are 10K to one

If you hit one number str for $50 it s

50 x 5K = $250K

I narrowed it down to 742,622 per drawing

Even if it was $1 a ticket, you'll lose money because of taxes. But at $2 a ticket, you're wagering $1,485,244 to win $1 million before taxes. ;

How does group playing plays out legally?

It depends on the state lottery rules and regulations where you play. Some state lotteries limit how long a player can tie up lottery terminals. IMO, at best maybe 1000 play slips (5000 tickets).

Preliminary 8/14 (Tomorrow)

Bold prediction: 4 OUT of 5 should hit from those 30 numbers.

Per mathematics, this gives out 142,506 combinations. Will narrow it down by sum by tomorrow.

Bold Prediction #2: PowerBall should be from one of the numbers list as well.

If both predictions are true, then we have 1,425,060 out of 302,575,350 possible combinations to hit a jackpot which is removing 99.53% of combinations(leaving 0.47%).

Lottomeister — Wed, 12 Aug 2020 14:02:32 GMT

ok...here is something I have used for the lotteries. Find the best sum range to play. Eg....say in 5/39 it's 81-108. Now take the root of the sum that's most over due and filter that way. Say if root 5 sum is over due that would be sums of 86-95-104...a combination would look like this 6-19-20-23-27 =95=5

You are not so concerned about number selection as roots. However if you have a very good number selection all the better.

You're right reddog. The other problem is $2 a ticket 10 plays=$20. Too expensive with ridiculous odds. NY 6/59 you get 2 plays for a buck. Financially MM and PB are busts unless you hit the jackpot. 4 yrs ago I had 4/5 numbers on one line and the Mega ball was on the next line! I got paid a paltry $171 dollars. had they been on the same line it would have paid 10k. 4/5 numbers in 5/39 I hit twice most recently paid almost $800. PB and MM are not worth playing financially.

A few years back a large group of us from work, maybe 15 of us starting out, did a pool for the PowerBall. Months went by and the group started getting smaller and smaller. People got discouraged when they saw it was not going to be as easy as it seemed to win anything decent. Each person was putting in five dollars a piece with little to show for. So after a year and with the group down to 6 people we called it quits.

Well, there isn't system for picking correct 5 + 1 numbers. The point is to narrow it at reasonable amount, where there is possibility. Yes, drawings are distinct and exclusive, yet randomness should prevail.

Anyway, i'm not here to argue. Doesn't hurt to have a topic and make predictions right?

There are 12,103,014 Possibilities of choosing 5 from 70.

I narrowed it down to 742,622 per drawing, which means we can throw away 93.83% of possibilities leaving us with 6.17%.

The odds of hitting a jackpot still remains 1 in 12103014 . You can slice it

anyway you want, the odds remains the same. I don't see the relevance of

the 288 draws so far if draws are distinct and exclusive

Hi,

Can you clarify what you mean by your program going under 1000-1 odds? 12Million / 1000 = 120K vs 700k?

5/39 NY is par mutual, and that's not something I'm interested in.

The 700K is from pure randomness, so from here we start filtering.

Statistically, if you choose any group of 700K combinations ( whether you go by sums, or whatever 'system' you have) then chances are that you should be right once every 15 drawings ( 700*15 = roughly 12Million).

I've got a program that will essentially do all that and even under 1000-1 odds and lower if the correct filters are hit. You do not necessarily have a winner. I would not get into a pool of 20 people with almost 700,000 combinations. How many tickets is someone going to buy at at a time 50? That's a $100. Not worth it. Chances of someone in the group hitting is almost nil. 5/39 in NY odds are over 500,00-1 You're better off with quick picks.

Why not try to find a Pick 4 str narrowed system

Pick 4 is 10K to 1 odd for str

Hitting $50 a str is $250K before taxes

Hey All,

Straight to point. I haven't came up with any magical systems' that win ever time, as many here claim. However, with few simple formulas and basic statistics, i came with some interesting oddity.

There are 12,103,014 Possibilities of choosing 5 from 70.
