What if you could pick the correct p/3# each time?
First off we have discussed this topic many times.... pick 3 and 4 games are big money makers the bookies figured this out a long time ago.......... the states outlawed gambling on the street and took over the games..... while the bookies still make some money on the street they know their is no system do do what you suggest. So to do the lottery's. If there were such a system it would have been done to death and everybody would be doing it. There are some great mathematicians here on lot

North Carolina 6/1- 6/30
ya can't hit every time, i am here to hit a multiple $2000 plus, this 500 and 160, and 80 is nice to hit, but it is not what i am striving for, i want the big money, and i am going to hit it!!! The law of averages has to come back in line, and with a little bit of luck, it will happen. I will be satisfied to sustain until then. I feel really, really, really good that 7 as middle digit is going to hit in the next three draws, (preferable tonight!!!) With alot of teamwork and proven track reco

Do you have the "FEELING" that you'll win or just the "HOPE"?
I've looked for methods that consistently matches most of the drawn number and that would be the 3s and 4s in pick-5 games. Most people would think that if I said I have a system that greatly increases your odds of getting 6/6 on a Pick 6 game , they would also think that the same thing applies to the lower tier prizes(2/6, 3/6, 4/6, and 5/6). However, this does not apply to my system. Well, it does, but not nearly as much as what most people would think. You see, my system uses elimination,

Do you have the "FEELING" that you'll win or just the "HOPE"?
I've looked for methods that consistently matches most of the drawn number and that would be the 3s and 4s in pick-5 games. If the method does that it should occasionally match all five numbers too. The cost of play can vary depending on the method. A system that uses all 39 numbers for play would cost at the least $8, would cost $12 for MM and a system using the best 15 numbers can cost anywhere from $3 to $3000. I wouldn't realistically expect to consistently get the 3s and 4s wins playing

Why do you play?
You quoted it yourself Overall odds of winning 1 in 39.89 1 in 39.89 is not 40%. Divide 1 by 39.89. It is about 2.5%.

North Carolina 6/1- 6/30
This is a good theory,I like it! So Jordan,are you playing numbers that are strange and rare as opposed to Hot Numbers ? What,in your opinion,are numbers that are least likely to come out? Have you tracked any? I'm thinking about the pick 5 and 6 games also. We know how many people play their birthdays and anniversaries,etc. The odds of hitting 5 out of 31 is 1 in 169,911. But the game has say,39 numbers. So if everyone was playing numbers from 1 to 31 someone would hit the jackpot everytime,

New York 6/1 - 6/30/6/2008
An evening double (662) finally appeared after 6 drawings. Unfortunately, it wasn't our beloved D2s but could this be the beginning of the a reversals in our doubles drought? Looking at the last 14 evening draws: 3 3 1 3 1 1 8 3 5 1 0 0 5 6 0 6 3 6 6 9 8 8 4 8 1 1 6 6 6 1 2 9 0 3 4 8 6 0 6 8 3 2

What to do with $1000 for lottery
Unfortunately I don't think the odds work that way, you'd just haveeither still a 1 in 14,000,000 chance for each play or maybe a 1,000 in14,000,000 chance to win but it doesn't allow it to be treated like aregular fraction in reducing it to the lowest common denominator, whatyou've only done is potentially taken 1,000 combinations out of14,000,000, there's still 13,999,000 combinations left. Saying that, it would depend, could this money only be used for thelottery? Because I could thin

Virginia man wins $250,000 twice in three months
Wow! Congrats to the winner! This might be odd to bring up, but today I was at the market and told a customer has won the Fantasy 5 jackpot several times and I said I don't believe it. Then I read this story, so who knows? At one of the smaller Publix markets they always tell people that a woman has won the Fantasy 5 jackpot 5 or 6 times. When I told the clerk I don't believe it, she answered Well, that's what she tells us. I know that store has sold 2 Lotto winners ($3M and $7M) but with

Legislators stall the hiring of Intralot Treading carefully through a legal minefield yesterday, a panel of state legislators put off a decision to hire a new company to run popular Ohio Lottery games, including Pick 3, Mega Millions and the upcoming Keno game.
