If you had a consistent winning system..
You raise a important question tj47 for anyone that becomes an advantage player i.e, consistent winner with a positive ROI Usually management will want to identify any such player because they are overcoming the predestined losing odds could potentially making a living off their (game) living the way mgt sees it the game is for entertainment and outside of a lucky streak, the player is suppose to lose if not they will investigate what went wrong with the game. Small wagers go under the rad

Hackers ?
Would need physical access System is monitored 24/7 so you would be caught on camera. Yes, even if you were James Bond. Multiple fail safe. Even w/physical access I am pretty sure none of the systems have USB ports, DVD drives etc. which would make it difficult to slip your code in Say you do rig the RNG, well it will show up in the tests that the auditors run. Auditors won't sign off on any drawing that raises the slightest flag. You might think this can be avoided but the test doesn't care ho

Texas Lottery suspends sales of Monopoly Millionaires' Club game
I too was taken a little aback by Texas' quick exit. Big states usually like to wait things out a bit, and I assumed that everyone would sit tight until at least January when other states will (would?) be joining. However, for Texas it does make some sense. Here is their progression of sales (oldest draw to latest): $429,735 $379,660 $363,440 $326,540 $326,070 $288,015 $280,945 Literally every successive drawing resulted in sales lower than the one before it. Not to mention those sale

Programmer Who Does It For Pick 4
G'd Day MrProgrammer First non trick question, with all your professional programming experience + Keno expertise: Can there be a predictive computation, methodology, etc to virtually capture a single number using a data base of say 1000 keno PP games (not each every time, mind you, but above the odds at approx 90%) Thanks in advance...... Good Weekend Wishes Eddessa_Knight PS- Not to be rude, but Is there a way to communicate with you off LP or on PM ???

Does your odds increase tremendously by millions just like this? Read for details.
1/7.55 = 13.245%. My original calculations I gave the exact number of combinations that match, which is how the lottery comes up with their odds. You seem to contradict yourself here, if you don't need them to pop up in 2 draws, then why would we need them to pop up in one draw followed by another (1+1=2)? The 1/8 or whatever is for a specific pair to show up in any one draw, not back-to-back or multiple draws. Example: there is a 13.2% chance that 1 and 3 will show up in any drawing. See, th

Steve Player's Pick-5 game using pick-3
What is the % for 1 pair hitting Example 09 11 12 18 28= last digits 9 1 2 8 8 Now add these to groups together Will give you about 89% right? You see why I'm going for these 2 groups ...And we need to use 4 digits codes for better hits. All so looking at other ideas from other posters here. Its not easy to hit the Jack Pot with these odds. What we should be looking for now is a system that hits 3 or 4 numers a lot . So were not using our Bank roll to play...

Virginia: 12/1 - 12/31/2014
Today I have 459 and 183 each for 0.50. If either number wins in the day draw, I'm going to parlay the $250 winnings into the other number for the night draw, particularly if the 459 falls in the day. Fifty cents into the parlay pays $125,000. The odds against the parlay are 1,000,000:1, but $125,000 would certainly perk up my holidays. Lol. Good Lucks! Why, you ask? Here's the historical data: 03/16/1998; Day: 8,0,8; Night: 1,7,5 03/17/1998; Day: 1,8,3; Night: 4,5,9 06/15/2004; Day:

Monopoly Millionaires game
Good point about wheeling. It can still be done, but due to the computer generated property number would take a lot more than 28 tickets to do it. Or maybe not depending on the state and terminal one uses to purchase them. Presumably, in many states, the terminal itself generates the property number. There could be ways to game this, and possibly purchase all 28 property combinations without buying too many extra tickets. As for the property number being used in the second chance game - I hon

The Lottery Was Not Created For Poor People To Play
I enjoy coming here to share ideas about the p-3 game. The other reason, being that based on the time I've spent here, there seems to be a lot more people than I thought who don't fully grasp the odds against them winning a major JP in their lifetime. So maybe, just maybe I can save some people from financial ruin by enlightening them. I'm willing to bet there are thousands who waste 20-30 dollars, or more a week on the PB and MM, and barely can afford it on such a futile effort, when they

1st post...
From my understanding, the terminal generates the quickpick numbers itself. The issue of repeating numbers across multiple plays is a common one with quickpicks. Interesting observation about numbers trending low. Not something I've noticed, but also wasn't paying attention to it - will from now on. For traditional 3, 4, and 5 digit games, there's an easy work-around to avoid various numbers - player can choose the first x-digits and then have the remainder quickpicked. There could be a work-
