...Why "Lottery Systems" Don't WorkReply
ThePenisThe people that play that pick 3 or pick 4 crap are stupid, the most they can win is a few hundred dollars max, not enough to even buy a good TV much less create a lifestyle change.Just maybe is better to win a few dollars than no money at allgrand prize of $110 Million! What you could do with all that money. Unfortunately, the odds of winning that prize were 1 in 54.9 Million. In other words, you'd be more likely to get hit by lightning or die in a plane crash than win. So, it's really

Canada lotteries changing biggest games to computerized drawingsReply
As LottoBux said, they are changing the Lotto Max game, not Lotto 649. They are two separate games, in the same way that Mega Millions and Powerball are two separate games. Both are changing to computerized drawings, but only the Lotto Max game is changing its number matrix. This move to computerized drawings for the two games is a real nail in the heart of all the Canadian lotteries. It's as if suddenly BOTH Powerball and Mega Millions changed over to computerized drawings. For Canadians, th

For me, it would be a major game changer. someone could take that money not spend it, invest it wisely and live off the dividends. that means I would never have to work for anyone else as lone as I lived! I agree with you on playing your stat

RL's T-Lex program download, free softwareReply
lottoburg All the recent stuff was added to give users more than one option to select the digits. I personally prefer the steps because many of them hit in runs of same values. In my last 5-39 game 11 of the 18 step values repeated from the previous game. Four of the six values that changed were step-1's. It's amazing to me how many step values repeat from game to game and that the step-1 values are most likely to change. I mentioned this before but I think if people would s
