If you play the pick 3, and you play one number a day using whatever system, you need to win once every 16.43 months to break even. I have yet to find a single pick system that can back test to this level.

If you play both the mid day and evening games, you need a win on either within 250 days to break even.

Profitability requires an even higher win rate.

This is why I stick to 1 pick per game. Regardless of the game.
