Do you believe in "lucky" stores?Reply
ok joker, now we are going to play hard ball. no more soft toss, no more bush league antics from you, now we are going to play the game you instigated on a level playing field. no more hitting and running tilting the odds in your favor. now we are going to do this dance equal. i will ask you the same thing that made you back out the door the last time, but this time you will face it like a man, and you will answer it, because if you think your going to just spray the board with questions ,

Do you believe in "lucky" stores?Reply
well joker, at least you came out to fully play out your spillages this time. must have been a little claustrophobic under that rock you were under for awhile there. shoot, i bet bin laden has air conditioning / heating and satellite TV under his. you could have made it work . but no, the last time i offered to prove to you that Jesus Christ is who He claimed to be from Gods word by systematically going thru the odds of one man in history fullfilling pre-predicted prophecy, you cried , and

You're disingenuous RL. If the Gambler's Fallacy was common knowledge here, software that banks on people not understanding it would not be pushed here. I play the Powerball using Quick Picks because I feel the $6 per week I spend provides me with at least $6 worth of entertainment, with the added bonus of the possibility of a big jackpot. What I don't do is waste time and money trying to beat the odds under the mistaken belief that ping pong balls can talk to each other. I though

Statistically Speaking - QP's and PP'sReply
In theory it's an even match if you go by what VISIONDUDE says about the games being random and each number has the same chance of being drawn and also that each player has the same chance of getting a winning ticket . amen amen anda amen. this has been my utmost humble (though consistently stubborn ) contention in here for 8 years. what i contended against , is the notion someone could manipulate a 'better outcome'. i still don't believe and think (making sure this is not misconst

(WOW!! After all that time away from LP you haven't changed at all still the same old stubborn) (Visiondude!!!) gee wiz, i hope not as far as changing . if anything, over time, i would hope that my steely resolve for all things factual would be pre-historic and carbon dated by now. i think you know me by now, in that if i know something to be true, there isn't a man on the planet that can move me 1 millimeter in the other truth direction. however, you have also witnessed me play fair, and a

Statistically Speaking - QP's and PP'sReply
good thinking. that narrows it down way further on the supposed validation that systems work. i still go by how many systems i have seen displayed at LP, vs how many years of observance of that, vs the self admission on my part that probably the most brilliant lottery minds reside right here at LP, and still no one seems to be able to pull a consistent profit off of even what is supposed to be more crackable .......pick3. let alone the odds of the jackpot games. that tells the real s

Why do people play QP's?Reply
true logical thinkers are willing to back up what they claim. the two current QP proponents are willing to challenge as to whether or not a system (any system) works by a simple test... i used to issue the same challenge years ago put up numbers pre-draw. the truth is, the QPers are willing to stick around, to see how the test shakes out, while systems proponents run for the excuse book. shoot, i even offered to go head-to-head with my random generated numbers, against anyone's s

Ever get lottery overloadReply
edge Many thanks, That's it . I know this, I just needed someone to jog my system. I totaly agree with your anaylsis of my dilemma. I love the chase, the odds are just a challenge to take on. I always tell people to aim much higher than where they want to hit. The logical side of me has taken over and faith has been pushed aside. Faith is what allows us to continue when reason says stop... We need both to function properly. I also agree that all the calculations we can make mean v

Praying?Reply
raven, you need to read it for yourself, before you can accurately say that. not a cursory bits-n-pieces / here-n-there approach, but an honest study of it, and you will see it's continuity over 1,000's of years, written and recorded by 40 DIFFERENT authors, from differing cultures, and differing times in history, and it ALL adds up to the same thing. continuos thought. there isn't a religious text or book of humanism in the worlds history that can match that feat. or, you can take the cha
