Is there any method or system that can an predict the first digit that will fall in Pick 3Reply
Let's try this with the simple game of Pick 3. In Pick 3, there are 1,000 combinations, from 000 to 999, all of which have the same probability of being the winning combination. Let's say you purchase one ticket. You pick 567 and bet $1. If the winning combination is 567, you win $500. Your chances of winning is 1 in 1000, because you have bet on one combination out of 1,000 equally likely combinations. Now let's say you decide to purchase a second ticket for the same drawing. You pi

$1.3 BILLION: Powerball jackpot soars to 5th-largest in game historyReply
I simply load the last cash value, and subtract the previous cash value (generally off the Texas Lottery site) and use the cash/sales ratio to estimate sales . And in this case you got garbage out because you put garbage in as a result of data that wasn't updated. In this case it looks like you used the $498.4 million cash value for the originally announced $1.1 billion jackpot. The actual cash value at drawing time was about $46 million higher, so they needed almost 70 million fewer ticket

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
is anyone going to bother with Mega Millions tonight? Even without PB being a bit more than 3 times as big MM is still well shy of my entry point, given the price and odds. I'm thinking some time in October is when I'll get in the game, assuming it's still rolling (and it probably will be). Under the prior ticket pricing structure I would have purchased my usual 1 ticket per drawing. Sorry to tell you but: They. Don't. Care. No tickets for me under any circumstances but am cu
