I believe that Play 3 Lottery can be won with a little math!Reply
An example from Yesterday's Florida mid to eve winning numbers. mid-318 eve-137 To get to 137, we would've had to know ahead of time to add 829 to 318. 318+829= (using lottery math) 11-3-17 (lottery math=137)

Benmas; Thank you. But... In the Florida nightly pick 3, I do not know of any digit in a specific position that has Exceeded a No Win period of more than +/- 140 draws...so, I'm thinking that would be heading towards a ceiling for a single digit in a specific daily lottery. with the little I understand about the rule of Big Numbers, don't think a single digit will in a closed lottery exceed such a long period without being drawn. So..., what would be a comparative ceiling for a pair of

How many of you if you had the time will study Probability just for funReply
although pick 5 or pick 6 little bit hard, it took patience and little luck to get the jackpot for example Florida Fantasy 5 unfortunately it took more research to reduce the jackpot into very-2 affordable tickets to plays one tickets to play and here are some tools to playing around with pick 5 or pick 6 it take alot of patience and xyz attempt. of course little bit luck. well good luck

Florida's Cash 3 Two-Zero-?Reply
A Pick 3 Front or Back Pair out 1,200 Days or more The Front Pair: 2 - 0 for the Florida Cash 3 is likely to be drawn in the Wed. or Thur. drawing. Not sure if a single or double digit in 'a specific nightly' lottery would not occur in a certain period of time: 120 drawings or less for a single digit. 1300 drawings or less for a Pair (either FP or BP). (something about the theory of Big Numbers)

Benford’s Law and The Lottery!Reply
Thoth, Thanks for the great analysis on Benford's Law (BL)! I believe that skips are the key to solving lottery games, putting yourself in the right spot at the right time with the right numbers. Great work on the Ohio, Illinois, Maryland, Indiana and Florida graphs. That's amazing how closely they parallel BL. But, I think what's more interesting is how closely they parallel each other. Skips that start with a 1 hover around 33-34% while BL states they should be closer to 30%. All

Standard deviation of lotto setsReply

E.g. in the 5/53 lotto part of Powerball the lowest std.dev. will be 1

Let's be totally stupidReply
Ok,,, but you went over my head with your college level vocabulary. I understand about the use of different machines PLUS using different ball sets, but what I don't understand is why you think the numbers drawn are not random, or do not form a random string ? I don't care if they use 500 different machines and 500 different ball sets. (unless you're one of the ones that believe that amount of PAINT used on the ball determins which balls pops up more often). The number 1 uses less paint than

How many repeat combinations in Cash 5Reply
My software is Gail Howard's Smart Luck. Google Smart Luck and it comes to the top of the search list. As far as Howard's software goes it's simply the software I chose to buy. It's no worse nor any better than any other. They all do pretty much the same thing. I enjoy using it... studying the numbers and learning about things like the repeating sets of five numbers is kind of my hobby. The thing about repeating sets of five numbers is that without software it's completely invisible to anybody.

Florida Lotto Head ScratcherReply
Maybe you already figured it out or got the explanation, in any case, an easy way to see why the odds are 1 in 6800 is to first make a ticket with three lines of all different numbers. Pretend you went out and bought 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 13 - 14 - 15 - 16 - 17 - 18 Okay, so now you want to know the odds that the winning combination has exactly two numbers from each of your lines. In the first line, there are 6 choose 2 = 15 ways of selecting two numbers. Sam
