Threepix,
Looks good for a "1" and/or "9" for Midday Texas 11/26. If it's correct, like my formula says, I'll share it with you. Last evening "3" was my "must-play" number and 9-5-3 hit. However, I had only 3-7-8, 3-7-9 and 3-8-9. I'm attempting, like you, to cut down the volume of numbers played and be more accurate on a small amount of combinations, so when I win, I get a big profit margin, and when I lose, I lose very little. Last night I lost $6 because I also put $3 extra on the 379. Otherwise, it would have been a $3 loss.
Let's see what happens. Good Luck.
Good, the "1" hit. My best four were 128, 129, 289, 299. 210 was drawn. Threepix, I did have a "0" all around the place, but my evolving method suggested it be cut. Guess I read the signs wrong - still tweaking. But as you see, the "1" from the 1 or 9 DID hit. And my starting point was to use the 9 and/or 0 and/or 1 -901. I can explain that later.
In fact, the "1" satisfied another high-percentage dvent where at least one digit from the previous Midday draw repeats two-thirds of the time. 7-5-1 was Midday 11/25, so "1" seemed like a lock, because 7 and 5 were nowhere in my formula. I am confident in what is happening with what I'm doing. I've been figuring and learning about what happens in the Pick 3 since 1997. Those first four or five years of study were filled with some good wins and a lot of miserable losses. My philosophy about any problem, is that there are solutions. With a disciplined view of the reality of the Pick 3 - randomn yet consistent - and a consistent use of methods that have a high percentage of success, we can win. How often? That is the question to be answered.
The point is, I played four combinations for a total of $4, but just missed it. So, either my system must improve a bit more, or I play a few more combinations to cover a questionable number. Holy cow, I could write a book. Good luck.
