I actually purposely do NOT play the same numbers over and over again. The reason? I don't want to choose to start new numbers and then see my original numbers winning the Big One . I don't think I could handle that. I know I'll get shot down for this...but usually I just do a quick pick. I figure, if I'm meant to win, I'll win. Sort of, it's out of my hands and you can't win if you don't play mentalities combined. However, after being on this site for a while, I did try my hand at pick

Sting nabs Minnesota lottery clerks stealing winning ticketsReply
This is outrageous. Its hard enough to get people to pony up their hard earned dollars and even play the lotto these days, nevermind the difficulty in actually beating the odds and getting a payout. Now we have 2nd guess the retailers that they might be scamming us out of the $$$? I like these undercover busts- maybe it will deter a would be lotto cheat for fear of getting busted.

Win the jackpot...now what?Reply
Probably true. We all know what the odds are. But I'll still buy my $5 Powerball quickpick later this evening.

Do you Believe Lotteries are Random?Reply
With a pick3 game, the odds are pretty good, whether you buy QP's or pick your own numbers, the next batch of QP's are going to have some of the same numbers played earlier. There just aren't that many numbers to be used in combinations of pick3s.

picking the first 5 numbers of megamillionsReply
There are many ways to do it but you have to decide the size of the number pool you want to use and how you will go about choosing it and the number of combinations you're willing to play. Once you've done that, you can back test to get the odds of it working on future drawings.

Lottery WheelsReply
Wheels can't improve your odds of winning vs buying the same number of tickets due to the risk of not having the winning numbers on the wheel, but can improve your odds of having prizes up to 100% when the winning numbers are among those on the wheel. Wheels can do some amazing things pulling in prizes when you do have the winning numbers on the wheel. For example: In the Lotto-Logix book there is a 12 number Pick-6 wheel in 22 lines that gives you an 88% chance of a 5# prize when all s

Do you want to try my pick6 system?Reply
It pays $2 for a match 3 so I suppose you could make a profit with 100 lines if you matched 3 more than 50 times or matched 4 along with 15 or more match 3's. The odds of getting any win at all are 1:54.

Testing out a strategyReply
In my excel sheets for the jackpot games, from 5 groups condensed to 4 groups making it; A,B,C,D. Taking the total number of balls and divided out evenly to 4, if there are some odds usually goes towards C and D group. Within it with the five groups that are equal to or greather than 3 number groups. ABC, ABD, BCD, ABCD, then track to see how often they come up. Take a look at one of the sheets, it is there. Perhaps it can help you.

think the MM or PB has bad odds?Reply
Its never happened (a perfect bracket) and it NEVER will. Thats why they offer huge amounts of $$$$ to those who can actually do it. Ive heard $10 M dollars to anyone who can fill out a perfect bracket which is really weak at best. At these odds, it should pay out $100B to anyone who can do it!!!!!!!!

You are saying there are 9 million trillions possible out comes which is hard for the average person with little or no math skills to believe. How did you figure those odds?
