Trial, re-trial Probabilities and Superstition Trial, re-trial Probabilities and Superstition When evaluating the probabilities of an outcome, I ve seen many superstitious behaviors, from kissing dice to wearing a lucky shirt. The core nature of superstition relates to trial re-trial probabilities, and it s worth a closer examination. When you toss a fair coin five times and it always comes-up heads , what is the probability of a heads on the sixth roll? A scientist will tell you th

The vastness of the odds for a jackpot win...
I read online that the odds on a Powerball or Mega Millions jackpot win, is between 142 million and 176 million. To expect to win even ONCE in your lifetime, playing twice a week, no less, one would have to play for 435 thousand years, to hit in ONCE. Clearly, the odds of winning by buying a ticket are almost equal to the odds of winning by finding an unsigned QP ticket on the street and pocketing it from the unlucky stranger gambler that bought it and lost it, and winning with that! You simply

A&E lottery showReply
You've basically suggested a pick 15 game where there are 36 digits to choose from instead of 10, and that's a much grander scale than any existing lotery game. It's a good analogy, but the actual numbers make the numbers in PB or MM look small.Extremely small. The chances of getting a specific outcome in that game would be 1 in 221,073,919,720,733,357,899,776. You're about 1,258 trillion times more likely to pick the right combination in megamillions. So why is it still a good analogy? Becau

N.C. Lottery sales fall shortReply
Lottery money appears to go to education, but the state just plays checkers with it. Rread the following, all states do this: For every dollar that the Illinois State Lottery provides for education, the State of Illinois takes one of their dollars out of the education budget to use wherever they like..... According to the site, they have raised a total of $1.7 billion in Fiscal Year 2004, with $570 million going directly towards schools. According to them, 33 cents from every $1 s

From what I have found it is an opportunity to take advantage of the up coming pick 3s. When the back to back event happens take the pick 4 apart break it down into pick 3 combos. Look at the performance just from utilizing the pick 3 combos the doubles mates inside of the back to back pick 4.
