Bare with me this is a long post.... Even though at times I look at the good side of things ... the 3 digit lottery drawings has been weird for some time.
In my opinion, I think the MSL majority of the time throws out numbers to save money much as possible and I'll explain why.
Ever since they had an issue last year I think in fall when they had an issue that numerous lottery players were being ripped off on winning tickets by some lottery retailers back in September that were trying to scam players from their winnings when MSL was throwing repeats left and right.
Next is the red ball bonus draw game which is a promotion where a certain month there's a small drum of white balls and 1 red ball. If the red ball is picked then they'll do another lottery draw that day for that drawing for the 3 digits.
Since, 2024 the last red ball promotion and the next promotion in August again ...it's ONLY for the 4 digits .. NOT 3 digits. Have you noticed unlike other years where MSL have the red ball promotion and the 20% more bonus ... it's past a half of year and there has been NO PROMOTION for 3 digit games as of yet?
Have you noticed how often 138 has nearly fallen almost every month since September 2023. How they held on to certain pairs for a long time like the 44X pair was held on for over 60 days from Mid- March, the 35X for over 40 days, number 5 didn't fall in evening draw for over 20 days and the 24X pair been missing for over 60 days now since mid - May 2024?
Then you have the TRIPLES last seen in March which nearly majority of other lottery states had triples multiple times even within that same month and week. Honestly, triples should have been came especially in the end of May and especially June that's why we had all them doubles in June and they try to passify us every now and then with 4 digits like 1234, 3456, 4567 or 0128, to seem like their giving popular 4 digits ... unlike when they tease players by putting out unpopular MSL false triples and false quads in the 4 digits like 101, 111, 000, 222 in 4 digits that doesn't include a 0 nor 1 nor 2 as those 4 digits because those are considered to be popular 4 digits that MSL has to pay big money out.
Don't get me wrong people can win the lottery and most people can predict good pairs with their own systems like Beautiful 1, Positive Energy and Dimples123 ... but still MSL likes to be tricky. Some players has even took breaks and stopped playing MSL 3 digits and all together cause of MSL pulling weird numbers for quite some time.
MSL better start treating players right by giving good 3 and 4 digit numbers before they lose even more lottery players ... LOL
But, in all everyone should play responsibly!
