I'm guessing that website you keep posting over and over is yours and you are just advertising it. Admit it.

Indiana, RNGs & Allegations: Time to TestReply
four4me,I think we're thinking along the same lines. I suspect that, for whatever reason, the daily games just aren't very popular in Indiana. Maybe the Hoosier Lottery just isn't doing a very good job of promoting. I've noticed that the vast majority of their advertising seems to be geared toward scratch-off games and their TV game show. There's some advertising for the PowerBall game also, but that's about the extent of it.I'm going to try to compare those number classifications that CalifDude

Are player odds and "overall odds" the same??Reply
The lotteries publish the overall odds because someone complained their advertising was misleading. It only takes one ticket to win and someone will win lot of money and it might be you . Those catch phrases are true but don't reflect how many players must lose so someone can win lots of money. The reality is a player will match three numbers, beat the odds per play of 306 to 1 and win six bucks.

Lottery numbers' combination secrets!Reply
I play, would love to win. I play supercash only. been playing 20 sets of #'s for over 5years everyday. I've been watching #'s haven't won 6/6 yet. I feel the computer generated #'s are not random at all. I cant prove the odds are what they say but how can there be odds on a computer???????????? If I could I would cancel ALL games picked by their OWN special computers. I believe the odds are not what they say. Any way I could make the lottery more fair? Why is there no advertising about the ran

I Believe Math Can Win Any Pick 3 LotteryReply
Just so everyone is aware, joker did nothing wrong by describing the system in the forums. As such, I only removed it because he asked me to. I personally think this Robert Walsh (or whatever his real name is) was pretty dumb for threatening joker with lawyers . Aside from the fact that there is near zero chance he even has a lawyer on retainer, making it a hollow threat, the idea of threatening joker for inserting what amounts to free advertising on the forums was stupid in the extreme.

Dumb question of the dayReply
my last paragraph is straightforward.... powerball is 2 games, a 5 of 53 and then a 1 of 42... by buying 42 tickets, each with a diffferent powerball number, you have beat the second of 2 games... but not at a cost-effective return... ($3 for a $42 investment)what I am trying to say is that you have no control over the possible outcomes, nothing you can do will change th fact that 1,000 possibilities exist for the pick 3... you only have control of the number of FAVORABLE outcomes...by buying mo

What Does It Take To Win (Mathematically Speaking?)Reply
I was simply pointing out that even a system after winning a jackpot, except for winning that jackpot would probably not look very impressive when back tested. (As I posted in another thread) By design states lotteries are designed so 45-50% of tickets sales is profits for the states. When you consider that 5% go to retailers for selling tickets and another 5-10% goes for advertising and operating cost, players as a group are lucky to get 40% of their money back. To attract more players 30

I need help with odds calculationsReply
You've obviously never take a course in logic or you'd recognize that the conditions for a lottery wheel and my analogy about Bill Gates are both conditional statements following the usual if-then format, and they're both true. If the required conditions are met then the result will occur. That the conditions may not be met doesn't make the statement untrue. You've used your own conditional statement about winning MM - if you play the winning combinations then you'll win (regardless of whether o
