Digit Master redivivusReply
Adam I don't use key numbers, here are the results of the RNG against tonight's drawing. All I do is press the random button then hit the wheel button. This simple process reduces the total lines close to 76%. It has hit the 5of5 close to 10 games in a row. A two step process that requires no brain power or analysis. 30 numbers in a pick 5 game reduces from 575757 to 142506 lines. Not a bad way to start and the secondary prizes have better odds. The odds for a 4of5 are 1 in 14250

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
So I compared some of the prize amounts remaining in this ILR to the ILR of 50x from mid-June and there's some disheartening observations: No $10k prizes were won. Three $5k prizes were won, one on each of the three methods of winning. Five $1k prizes were won. (In order from the top one listed to the last one, 2 were won, 1 was won, 1 was won, 1 was won, 0 were won). The last one of course we know is when 1 number matches. Eight $500 prizes were won. Four $250 prizes were won.

Do you believe every combination has the same probability?Reply
The odds of the game is a mathematical formula based on the number of balls used in any given game cannot be altered unless you change the number of balls in the game. You cannot truly have a random process when you put these man made balls into a man made machine expect everything to be consider equal. Correct. Why not? I'm interested. Even if you use different machines, combinations and patterns do form over a period of time. The odds of any game is based on the fact that each ball has

I saw your other detailed analysis post Zeb, very interesting. So I have a question. We have a guy here (EMTAdam) that managed to beat the odds and won 2 Jackpots ($2M and $250K). In FL, we have 2 major games near the end of their run, both $10 games (50X the Cash) and ($200 Million Spectacular). The 200MS game has run for what seems like forever and was projected to last 10 years. There were a total of 20 Grand Prizes of $1 Million. The bulk of those were won in the first 5 years. There's

Mega Millions rolls $9M ($251M to $260M)Reply
What's even worse about this low rollover amount that it occurred after a record number of draws. We certainly are no where near a record jackpot, even for Megamillions. The previous record jackpot in MM came in less than 20 draws. They went too far, they worsened the odds significantly while representing that they were improving the odds of winning (actually the odds of not losing) and they assumed that by reducing the value of the ticket they would increase sales. Moreover, they made the

The secret to winning lottery with Scratch off'sReply
I'm sure the state lotteries prefer top prizes to be hit as late as possible. I prefer that too because it improves the odds (a tiny bit) of hitting a top prize since more tickets would have been sold... But it seems top prizes get claimed when I least expect it. My way of determining the life of the game is the percentage of its total prizes claimed (TPC); it's probably the wrong metric, but it's the only simple metric my newbie lottery brain can visualize right now. The first scratchers

Goseahawks -111/+222..and observation high pair chartReply
Your post and comments presumes the innumeracy of LP community(my impression), all your discussions about stats is not new. Trust me folks are very much aware of the odds , does this prevent them from trying? Let me ask you this simple questions: What's the probability of hitting a straight pick 3? What are the ODDS of hitting a straight pick 3? What's the probability time frame for a straight pick 3? What's the ODDS time frame for a straight picks3? NB:You subscribe to the lo

System QuestionReply
Interesting. Not sure what you mean by N-String. My original question on this post was looking for an elimination processes. My example is just to illustrate one method. Any Process or formula can be used. The real question for me is when a process is only 10-15% successful in predicting a draw, is it also 85%-90% successful in predicting a number will not hit? I know that just picking a number in a position has a 10% chance of being correct. The idea makes me think about a process where you

There are 220 Box numbers, but not really as 10 of them are both straight and any-order they are 000 111 222 333 444 555 666 777 888 999 The pick 3 game is a straight numbers game, the box or any order stuff is artificial, there are 1000 pick 3 numbers and they always come out straight. Anyhow, Do each of the 220 box numbers have the same chance to come out? No. These 000 111 222 333 444 555 666 777 888 999 are triples, triads or whatever, they are both box and straight, but really stra

Pick 3/4 Meter Made Math MovesReply
The first step in analyzing should be asking what is the probability of this occurring While you seeing something in 6,7,8 that is just because your mapping of gaps into 1-10 makes those obvious. Any other set of 3 gaps showing the same pattern would be just as likely. There are 128 different combination of 3 digits so there are 128 different sets of 3 gaps that would be just as interesting as this particular set of three gaps. You got interested when the gap was 27 drawings long. What ar
