No,I am not confusing the two.,My Lottery poll with the prediction could be voted and the predcition could be brought by the people if they want to.The poll is set up to know better of how the lottery pool runs.The pool is just to be done thru a poll way for free.And I collected worldwide lotteies and the rule how to play all of them.Just check my post.Where I come from is least important and I would not be willing to let people know who I am and where I am from.

hot lotto,You are confusing the word poll with the word pool, you must not be from the U.S. You also need to read the rules of the games if you think the powerball is a pick6 game.RJOh

Then my answer is 1 ticket for 30 draws is better by a very, very small margin.Good luck,JakeI concur.

Everyone could play four U.S.Lotteries at biggamelottery.com online and when polls are set up,it would work more effective.

Hot Lotto... in 12 of 158 drawings, the powerball matched a number in the white balls... thereby making analysis as a pick 6 invalid because pick 6 lotto numbers cannot ever repeat in the same drawing... even though it's only 7.6% so far, it still can happen.

Maybe not two lotteries from another aspect of viewYou add the powerball to 5 balls and its like a pick6 lottery.When you work out the result of pick6,Just select 2 balls from 6 as powerball DEPENDING ON a effective method or analysis.When 6 balls have one powerball and 4 balls ,This way can guarantee a 4+1 of 5000$ FAR more than 4+0 of 100$ the way you figure out the result separating the powerball apart from other 5 .Besides,it could take the advantage of multiplier to turn 5000$ to 25,000$ a...

Actually when you play Powerball, you are playing 2 lotteries, one is 1:42 and the other is 1:2,869,685. Playing all 42 powerballs gives you 42:42 or 1:1 odds of picking the the right power ball and 42:2,869,685 of picking the right combination of five, but the odds of picking both the right powerball and the right combination of five together is 42:120,526,770 or 1:2,869,685.RJOh

each ticket is good for only one dvent...The 10 draw scenario, your odds are 3:120,526,770.00 for 10 draw dvents... cost $30 ($60 with power play)The 26 draw scenario, your odds are 1:120,526,770.00 for 26 draw dvents... cost $26 ($52 with power play)I would take the one QP over 26 draws because then the dvent you are trying to match has 26 times to happen rather than 10... as you can see, there is no significant odds reduction playing 1 ticket vs. 3 (odds not meant to be a reduceable fraction)T...

Also, buying one ticket for 30 games rather than buying three tickets for 10 games gives you a better feeling because you are in the chase a lot longer (you can't win unless you play). It's not just about winning, if you're just spending $1 per game, it's about dreaming and hoping that you'll get lucky and that feels good, the longer the better.RJOh

What I MeantT Was, If I But One Quick Pick #(01,02,03,04,05:33) To Last 26 Straight Drawings(4-10-04, 4-14-04, ETC.) Or Three Quick Pick # To Last 10 Draws(4-10-04, 4-14-04, ETC.) Which Has The Best Overall Odds? Also Would I Be Better Off Getting My Quick Picks Though The Store Or Off A Lotto Program(Lotto Hat, Lotto Pro
