Lotto Architect v2.2Reply
I can't speak for everyone else, but if I could pick winning lottery numbers on my own I wouldn't be hanging around here. My hope is that you have a better idea how to win then I have. Take the Gail Howard software. I can select the range of history to use from hundreds of choices. I can include up to 7 charts in the prediction process and assign a different weight factor to each. I can then choose how many numbers to wheel and select from a multitude of wheels with some filters. All in all

Probability of Repeats, Subsequent DrawsReply
Thanks Colin and RJOH . This is a TUFF game. It hurts my little.... Pea- Pickin' Pick3 head. The odds are just toooo much for me to use in my little methods. In the Pick-5 games ....I always picture it as me against the odds of about 10 college football stadiums ....each one of them holding about 50,000 people. During halftime they call out the winning ticket number at all 10 stadiums .......Yeah! it's me. I can handle that easy. ha ha. OK, I can dream that high ...one in 500,000. But......

Probability of Repeats, Subsequent DrawsReply
Dear Big game players, What per cent of the time do you get a 2 number repeat in 6/49 ? Is there an equation? What is the % of a one number repeat? What per cent do you have all even numbers..or...all odd? On the rare times that we get an all even on the 5/39 .......if I remember, your odds go down from a pool of about a half a million .....to .....around 5o,ooo . I only play all even numbers when I do play. On those days.....90% better odds. If you knew that position 3 had produced the las

Buying more tickets = reduced oddsReply
so then buying a second ticket makes 60,000,000 combinations disappear then?think of it how you like, but the fact remains that the number of possible outcomes NEVER changes... Besides, playing 500:1000 in pick3 in PA which pays 500:1 would be a wasted exercise IF you won...there are still 500 uncovered combos... think of it as 1:2 if it helps justify placing 500 bets, but the possible combinations will always be the same...Rather than bulk tickets, I would lean towards a full coverage wheel...

After I got my Computer Model operational I would amuse myself by playing 200,000 or 300,000 tickets. The thing that ama

Powerball 2004-04-28Reply
Agreed.I might add that I do in fact use a number stream like that suggested by Doug, although the process by which I arrived at it (it has been constant for many years) had very little bearing on the number of times a particular number was used. The chief variable in the analysis I used was affected the expectation value of the win and not the probability of actually generating the win. I generated my stream by looking at the number of winners at each level in the California lottery (years
