quick pick or your own numbersReply
Hi everyone, I usually pick my own numbers with not much success. Saturday night I bought 11 tickets with my carefully analyzed selections. Got 2 numbers on 2 lines which won 2 free quick picks. One of those free quick picks actually had 3 numbers and I won $9.00 so played for free this weekend. If you don't play quick picks, how much time do you spend selecting your numbers? It takes a few hours for me, then when I have so much time invested in it, I have to play even th

Powerball lottery jackpot reaches $250 millionReply
100 TICKETS......?????......you neeeeeedddd to win.... Do you prefer qp .....(quick pick)...???....In MD.... qp is a joke, and not very funny I prefer to make up my own series.....starting w/the #5, or 2 or 6, or 1, or 7, or 4...however I think I must be using very conservative numbers, and I try to invent series beginning w/10 or 20, 24,33, or 19, something unusual because this seems to be a trend sometimes. Strange numbers....lolololololol In the District.... qp is usually also a

Phased Ocurrence ComparisonsReply
Hi, Thanks everybody for your input. Paint1, For 6/47 here is one of my summaries over 201 games. The top horizontal row identifies lottery ball (1-5). The vertical column identifies how many times each occurrence occurred. So, Paint1, your assumption appears to be basically correct. My chart below would say that the best bet over a 5 game span would be 0-times, 0-times, 0-times, 1-times, and 1 to 2 times for the last ocurrence value. This proves to be a valuable filter, however it also leaves

Winning a Jackpot, Luck or Fate/Destiny?Reply

Lottery winners right to privacyReply
In my opinion you're dealing with a form of public funds since lotteries are voluntary taxation, therefore the winner has to be disclosed in some manner to inform people that it was not a rigged draw.

$14 million Illinois lottery jackpot expiresReply
The llinois lottery is used to damaged, lost, destroyed tickets all the time. They know what there doing, and have awarded winnings when the ticket appeared damaged beyond readablity to the untrained eye. They have also encouraged persons who where denied to file a claim and let a judge make the final order. While its true the lottery will not accept a copy of a ticket, it does not mean that the said ticket cannot be proven to be the real deal . As before, serial numbers, bar codes, etc. there
