  Sometimes my brain gives me ideas about a strategy that I can use.

  The more I think of the strategy at that point in time, the more I realize that it's just my brain trying to be creative and telling me there is a way to win this.

  But when I look back at the past drawing and how much the next drawing has gone up by, I tell myself all those millions of tickets did not get it right.

  So then I just stick with one or two QP and go home.

  I've found some methods of picking numbers that match more numbers than quickpicks, but never enough for a jackpot. Even so, I still like to try different ways to match numbers.

  I've never had much luck with birthdays, but an anniversary got me $400 on Powerball once. I've tried playing my social security number and didn't have much luck with that either.

  Sometimes I'll play a few numbers selected using a specific method then throw in something random. On a line I might play 3 numbers I pick myself then 2 randoms or such. No jackpots, but have won a few lower prizes this way.
