Mega Millions...01/10/2003Reply
RJOh,here are the best and worst sets of 26 i've come up with. it's based on 1500 random sets of 26 numbers compared to the total 590 draws in Mega Millions.Best01 02 06 10 11 13 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 33 35 37 38 39 41 42 44 51Worst01 02 03 04 15 18 19 20 24 25 27 28 29 30 31 32 34 35 37 38 39 40 41 42 51 52However, keep in mind, there are 4.959185329 x 10^14 combinations for 52 numbers taken 26 at a time.

Now that you mention it, I have noticed that a lot of pick3 predictors in a lot forums list a lot of numbers hoping they will hit somewhere in the U.S. If you consider any mixture of the combinations a hit (boxed) then the odds of a hit is 1:220 or better, and it you have twenty numbers that cut the odd to 1:11 of one of those numbers hitting in a single drawing and when you add the fact that there are more than 40 pick3 drawing daily the odds becomes 4:1 or better. So for anyone to post 20

To Jade,The 26 even numbers included both sets of 52 numbers, so the 26 numbers would include both the combinations and the Mega balls. It hard to find a set that has more hits than the even numbers. I found a set that had more hits at the higher end, but fewer hits overall. They are: 02 04 06 09 10 13 14 18 21 22 24 25 27 29 31 32 35 39 40 41 42 44 45 49 51 52. These are the numbers I'll use to pick tonight's numbers using the parameters that I normally use to pick my numbers. I'll be a

To Bug,It's always nice to get something back, even if it is less than I spent, it just nicer to get more. When I code my ideas is GWBasic, I alway code a way to change the variables or data as the program runs. As far as looking at those even numbers, I'm always looking for a smaller and more productive group of numbers. Some players look at hot,cold or overdue groups, but I prefer to find a small group of numbers that have covered a large group of winners. If I could pick my numbers fro

Powerball, all even numbersReply
When you think about it, when you ask the question 'have there ever been an occassion when all six numbers were even ', you are really asking 'have there ever been an occassion when all six numbers were in a group of 26 numbers'. With any group that large, you should find a few that are totally within those parameters. For example in MegaMillions with only 68 drawings: All even numbers: 12/06/02 04 08 30 36 52 + 48 10/22/02 16 20 26 36 48 + 32 08/06/02 02 06 38 40 50 +14 05/

Mega Millions and Powerball SynchronizedReply
I think the Powerball jackpot will continue to climb faster than the Megamillions jackpot helped by the annuity length, but also aided by the fact that the chances of winning a prize is better. When ever I've gone to Indiana to play the Powerball and talked to Ohio players who live near the boarder they say they prefer to play Powerball unless the jackpot of the Megamillion is over 100M. For them both games are available in their travel area, so Powerball get their money most of the time. I s

RJOH was able to point some things out that i couldn't uncover (props to RJ). cheetah knew he was busted and rode the first chicken out of town. but keeping to the theme of playing fair, if we mis-interpreted mr. cheetah, he is more than welcome to come back and make his case. and i am more than man enough to apologize if i was wrong.personally i th
