I see says the blind man
It definitely does NOT support the assertion of any sort of cause and effect relationship among any of the things we're discussing here!
Because the same probability applies had the poll asked how many times should 811 or any other three digit number be drawn in the last 33 years and based on some of the replies, I wrong assumed you were going in that direction. And I should have known better because of what I was talking about in the other thread.

Statistically Speaking - QP's and PP's

There are 962,598 unique results in a Pick(5,43) game. Buying 5 PPs per day, you have a high likelihoodof winning at least one jackpot every 527 years. If you can onlyafford 1 ticket per day, you might have to wait until the year 4647! See you at the Pick-3 Poll!
I don't play a lot of Pick 3 or Pick 4 but when I do I'm going to play 527 and 4647!

Lucky Loser,
A lot of what you said above is true.
If more people play a particular way, then there will be more winners...STATISTICALLY. QP players cannot win no where near as consistent as PP's with correct math and properly arranged numbers.
This is true, assuming you are buying more than 1 ticket. However, you're forgetting something very important.
Let's say you're picking numbers for a Pick-5/43 game, and you have $5 to spend.
Compare these 2 choices:

Stack47,
I'd really like to see you head over to my Poll in the Lottery Systems Thread named PA Daily Number (Evening). I hate to reveal the correct answer with only 4 entries. It's asking for the result of a Backtest of a simple Pick-3 System. Along with the answer, I will be documenting each HIT with the date and winning number. The next step will be to Backtest a more sophisticated system, and post the results. If you hang in there long enough, you may get the answer to the questions you w

Do you believe in "lucky" stores?
Wish the poll was about Unlucky stores, because everytime I stop at this one I get Losers each time. Figuring at some point a winner will spew. SO far I have consistently Lost money there.!!
Why do I stop there, because I figure they need luck to enter in order to win...
I'll hold the door for lady luck any day!

Should illegal immigrants be able to claim lottery prizes?
The Poll question wasn't Is it legal?
The question was Should it be legal?
And it should not be legal for an illegal alien criminal on the loose to profit from money wagered by legal, law-abiding Americans.
They don't deserve to profit from disobeying our laws.

Poll: Should we try a little harder to keep the discussions about all things Lottery?
Does anyone see the irony in someone who was one of the most prolific posters in the Prayer thread that went on for page after page and day after day putting up a poll:
Should we try a little harder to keep the discussions about all things Lottery?
Class act DD. Class D Sally League maybe.
Gee, is it any wonder there's a thread: The Institute for the Lottery Insane.

Poll: Should we try a little harder to keep the discussions about all things Lottery?
On the one hand we could say All numbers and no play makes Johhny a very boring little boy .
I think we'd have to define lottery related but if we got too strict we'd lose a lot of humor and the fun factor .
I thnk we'd also have to consider where obsession with one partucular thing would come into play.
For one thing the Gaming Forum would be gone completely, no? Or is the poll just about the Lottery Discussions forum?
