Are pre-draws corrupting your lottery strategy ?
It seems you forgot to answer, again...
So what are the odds exactly for 1 number in a pick3 game? How does one calculate them?
(Surely, such an easy question should be totally not difficult for a person of your ability to answer... or is it too difficult a question?)

Are pre-draws corrupting your lottery strategy ?
Yes, that post was put up to show people if they hold onto only one single straight played combination that it could take wellllllll over 1000 draws for it to hit given that there still many combinations that have yet to hit in the never drawn list.....those combinations that i posted for NC had actually gone past 3000 draws
What this means is that the odds are not 1/1000 as ssssoooo many people mistakenly believe ..... it is only 1/1000 if you play 1000 combinations.... its actually easy to

Root sum 3 or 5 Pa.. 1/12-15
All odds been out awhile in both draws...513 caught my attention 3 times today but anything all odd will do.
The set up for straight might be low in center 513/315...your 113/311 fits and so does 737....707
Looking/hoping for sums 17 (19) 21 (13)

Post your scratch ticket results
Hello I am a new poster from Maryland. This past month and a half playing scratch offs was the best one I'd have. I hit $500 for the 1st time, then hit $300, and later hit a $500 on a $20 ticket. I was pretty good about not playing for a while, then I started on Sunday and ran very cold. I played a $20 ticket and it took like 7 to win $25. I bought 2 more and won $40 and $50. As I was leaving I bought a $20 Silver and Gold ticket and won $100. Later in the evening I played some more and did terr

Lottery stop loss limit=$60 annually with three playing methods starting in 2012
The key to winning the lottery is to just be a player, not try to increase your odds of striking the jackpot.
The following prove the previous statement true.
Whatever the drawing is for that night, said Hernandez, That's the ticket I buy. One dollar. No more. No Less. The strategy 37th years old Alex Hernanadez from Staten Island used to win $1,000,000 NY Sweet Million Jackpot on November 30th, 2009.

Anyone play the new $10 Fla Lotto Black ticket ?
Maybe I got lucky but the machine broke down at publix and they already closed over the counter sales so i could not get them. checked the odds online and does not look good. another Color of Money - which was the worst $10 game ever imo
There is a new $5 ticket out too. same old stuff though. wish they had some imagination over here and actually made a game which was different than the 100 other tickets out there. its become repetitive robb

Pessimism?
Funny, I decided to do the same thing. I'm playing on dollar on Texas 2 Step, Texas Lotto, 1 dollar on MM with Megaplier, 1 dollar on PB w/Powerplay until it goes up, then drop Powerplay, and 1 dollar on Texas Cash 5, and 1 dollar on midday Daily 4. 24 bucks a week. It sounds like a lot, but it's 10 - 15 bucks less a week than last year.
Right now I'm playing QP's on evrything except Daily 4. That might change but the amount spent each week won't. Already had a couple hits on Cash 5.... of co

Are pre-draws corrupting your lottery strategy ?
Ok hmmmmm here is an example of what i mean : let say before you , you have the previous pre-draws and in those pre-draws the last number draw was 444,
now would you play 444 for the live drawing know that it has just hit ?
What would you think the odds of 444 repeating ?

Well said Boney. You have skills.
If the event is random then no other random event affects it, and the data from those past events cannot more accurately pick the outcome of the next event.
Excellent. It's all about ODDS.....and in Pick-3 almost everyone in the World knows it's 1 in 1000.
Thanks

Are pre-draws corrupting your lottery strategy ?
There's no statistically significant reason to believe that pre draws result in skewed statistics - that is results that don't follow a normal distribution. Unless the intent of the lottery is malicous, such as them wanting to do pre draws and pick the combo with the least winners to be televised. Otherwise the pretests would actually work to preserve a normal distribution by determining that their are no malufunctions or biases before doing the real draw. That real draw is a seperate event - an
