The columns on the right are an attempt to measure the success. The higher the number, the better the predictions. There is a 1 in 2.74 draws chance of hitting a 1 out of 5 in 47 (CA lottery). The mega number is ignored. That means that randomly you should get one right in every 3 draws or so. The quick picks are doing that. The top red number is the cumulative success of my predictions (the average of all rows), the blue of the quick picks. The reason the red is higher than the blue is because...

carolina 5 work
looked at my carolina 5 entries before I looked at the draw results and it showed that sorted position one had strong indications of 2 odds in sorted position one.

Back in the Lab
Returning from a Total Right Hip Replacement performed 8/20/2018. So far it has all been good. I m still pretty restricted; but, feeling better each day and getting around Fine with my Walker. I was working hard on Pick 4 before the Operation. I was about done with the Latest Tool and looking for Testers.

In 2012, three out of 11 Mega million jackpot winners hailed from the top 10 U.S. metro areas. But mixed in with winners from Los Angeles, New Y...

The importance of backtracking
I used to play Pick 3 lottery for some time but generally with little success (doesn't it sound familiar to most folks?). At first I observed the numbers for a while and then picked a set of my personal favorites. I played them over and over again. But I seldom had any success with them - they did not want to come up, at least not in sequences I used for playing. I also used to play Lotto 649 before and experience from it gave me some insights. Personally I prefer prediction me...

Busy coding day
Starting off with running the next on the house pick 3 combos and then going to play them. The harder part is for fine tuning the Cash 4 Life classifier, as a deeper dive into the data shows too many draws that should be classified as cold are being given the Neutral classification. The standard deviation ends up being too wide when using 1.5 as a scalar, this is most likely because it was set for 1 to 60, but the observed range is much tighter. Good thing...

Now sometimes we know that repeats show up once in awhile and they have shown up twice in a row at some points in time. This is a good chance you could pull something like that off.
