Bad News MO Players...Reply
Bryan,Thanks for posting. I couldn't find any info on ODDS (Online Daily Draw System) software, so I'm guessing it's home-grown software.They go to great lengths to describe the drawing process, but I'm still wondering what they mean by people will watch the drawing from an external video feed. What, they're going to watch a tape of someone hitting a button on the keyboard??I'm sure NASA would have a much more impressive list of technology they could spew, but accidents and bugs still happen t

Mid-Day Drawings.Reply
I voted yes for pick 3/4 only. I will admit however that when Maryland first did this I wasn't real happy about it because it meant that if you were and avid evening 3/4 player, that your number just might come out in the midday drawing. So as a result if you had numbers you liked to play you had to get a bet down for both drawings which meant spending more money every day. I have been fortunate a few times when I hit midday drawings. Now I sort of like having 2 drawings per day. As it gives me

ohiopick3:I played 23 lines in OhioSuperLotto tonight and I don't play any combinations of 3's that have hit in the last 20 drawings or any combinations of 4's that have hit in the last 200 drawings and guess what? Tonight's drawing had 3 numbers from Wednesday's drawing and 4 numbers that hit March 17 twenty-nine drawings ago. I try to play with parameters that are true 75% of the time and tonight they all were wrong. I usually only play that many lines when the jackpots goes pass the normal

Only Odd NumbersReply
Dragon -As I stated in my response, there are 177,100 possibilities in a 6/49 drawing that will contain only the available 25 odd numbers, the same as if you were drawing to a 6/25 lottery.If even numbers only are desired, there are 134,596 possibilities, the same as in a 6/24 drawing.As far as your original formula and number are concerned, I now think I have a handle on how it was derived and the flaw contained therein. You stated there is a skip of a number, yielding a formula of (25*24*24*23

MegaMillions season ticketsReply
Thanks, very interesting. But having a ticket for every drawing is fun, and even if I win the lowest possible jackpot - say $5 million, the $10 million jackpot split with someone else - I would be okay with that. I could get everything I wanted with $5 million, even if I would get a better value for my $1 waiting to win $50 or $100 million. In that case, why not have a ticket each drawing...and if I am going to have a ticket for each drawing, I should get it at the best price. It would be toug
