Do some number combinations have better odds?Reply
You're still missing the point because even if whatever group of 28 numbers matched the probable 1 in 39 drawings one time, in that drawing the odds were reduced from 3,819,816 to 1 to 98,280 to 1. If reducing the odds by 97.43% isn't getting better odds, what is? Stack always gets right to the clear simple truth of what we are doing on this thread.............. You don't need 5 consecutive five number matches to beat the 39 to 1 odds; 2 out of 39 drawings is enough. Exactly right, the

nor does it mean that you can average better than the odds dictate. I'll try to keep it simple. A group of 28 numbers creates 98,280 possible combos and there are 3,819,816 possible outcomes. That's 2.57% or odds of 39 to 1. You don't need 5 consecutive five number matches to beat the 39 to 1 odds; 2 out of 39 drawings is enough. During the test, Ronnie was the only one who consistently changed his 28 number groups and had the best results. You, of course, can win, but cannot consistent

Mathematics and the LotteryReply
The lotteries payoff odds are generally 50% of the probable odds in pick-3 and pick-4 games. The closest any group came to beating a lottery was a couple months ago when Kentucky paid out 97% of their pick-3 sales for an entire month. Kentucky does payoff at 60% of the true odds.

Quick Picks verus Self PicksReply
In my experience self picks are better, at least vs published overall odds. I have been tracking my results in the smaller state/regional games such as Hot Lotto, Lucky for Life (New England), and Tri State Megabucks Plus(ME, NH, VT) since the beginning of this year and have won more often than odds would indicate in all of them. Hot Lotto I'm winning any prize at a 1 in 12.5 rate vs 1 in 16 overall odds, 1 in 5.4 vs 6.6 odds in L4L, and 1 in 4.7 vs 5.9 for Tri State Megabucks Plus. I play a com
