PB\MM number set questionReply
If I understand you correctly, you are saying that PB and MM sift through the millions of tickets sold and find a combination that has the lowest sales and then they arrange for those numbers to be drawn. Really??? Check the odds for the reason there are only a few 4+1 winners. Or any major prize winners.

Careful what u ask for, you might not like it. If you keep the same percentage of PB sales (18.02%) allocated for the 2nd-9th prizes, and then eliminate the bottom 6 tiers, this is what you can get: _ Powerball 2nd-3rd $2 Percent Prizes Odds 1 in Match 10.32% $1,064,000 5,153,633 5 of 5 7.70% $100,000 648,976 4 + PB So you can get a $100,000 3rd prize, and increase the 2nd prize to a whopping $1,064,000! For that privilege, most people will never ever win any

Good work on those Xwords! Yeah, it may not give you an edge, but it can level the playing field sometimes where other games are played out due to win chasers and hawks.

COMPUTERIZED DRAWING GLITCH STRIKES ARIZONA LOTTERYReply
You are not addressing the point of the discussion.... explain the logic of the testing. Can you address why it takes 4, 5, 6 tests to make sure a machine will work properly? How about 1 or 2? Using your logic, then that wouldn't make any difference either, right? So why put more wear and tear on a machine and waste taxpayer money? If the odds are so outrageous (which they are), then 1 test should do the trick, right? And back to the point of the thread, computerized draws is definitely NO

Can math and logic improve chances of winning a jackpot?Reply
Looking at the output and because of the wheel design, the first five number are in the first line. So if you go low to high, you'll have lines with four or more low numbers and you go high to low, you'll have four or high numbers the same line. It would be very difficult to get a consistent number distribution using a large combo wheel, but you don't want to have several lines with four numbers from the same decade or four consecutive numbers either. I don't want to argue with the math criti
