Powerball Power Play Number Almost Always 2 ?Reply
So, everyone had some time to see the posts we made. Good, let's move on. First, let's go over Odds and how to calculate Odds. Don't worry; this is not going to be a mental mathematical juggernaut. All we will be using are: add, subtract, multiply, divide and a fancy word, ratio, meaning to relate one number to another. Odds is basically defined as the ratio of Success (S) to Failure (F). S is the total possible outcomes or probability an event will occur and

New Jersey P6Reply
Never thought about bringing sports betting odds strategy into the lottery but i like it. like it very much. As i understand odds would be precisely the same if the game would allow repeating numbers such as: 6-6-6-6-6-6 and your grading system is based on the difference between numbers as well as using last results to calculate odds for the next draw? Also in the sentence The 2nd number will drawn from 18-22 or from 13-18, and so on. did you mean 13-17 (+4 differential)? I like the

Good Luck Boney.. I'm not a big fan of looking that far back into the past history of draws to calculate odds,however the digits 0-3-6 accompany the Universal Constants Digits more than any.

Can I find all the possible Mega Millions combinations somewhere online?FReply
Alrighty, I'm just about done with an .exe Windows Application for creating 'full wheels'. It also has a 'Calculate Combinations' function that will allow you to calculate odds (or total number of tickets) for any input of Numbers Per Ticket, Max Ball, and Bonus Ball Count. ..Well almost any, it will calculate anything up to (and slightly over) 6 numbers per ticket with 300 balls and 50 bonus balls (1:48,141,142,335,000 by the way), which should be plenty. The application prints all combinations

Buying More Tickets Does Not Increase Your Odds.Reply
Well, the simple fact you are doing subtraction and not division means that you don't know how to calculate odds. I told myself I would not do this, but heck, I'll give it one more shot. If the odds of winning something are 1 in 10 (if you buy 1 ticket), and you buy 5 tickets, are your new odds 1 in 5? Because that's what you just said. Subtract 10 - 5 and you get 5. 1 in 5, right? Of course not. That would be ludicrous. The new odds after buying 5 tickets would be 5 in 10, or (in reduc

Lotto Max (Canada) Odds
While visiting Canada last week and having briefly entered a convenience store, I took an passing, casual interest in their lotto games, so I picked up a few play slips. I like to calculate odds as a mental challenge, and I turned my attention to the Lotto Max game, which appears to be the largest jackpot lotto in Canada. It is a nationally pooled lottery with ticket sales through regional or provincial administrations. This is a roughly similar structure to Powerball and Mega Millions in the U.

Ever had an Easy/Quick Pick exactly match your picked numbers?Reply
Remember.. It's the GOVERNMENT who runs the lottery. I barely trust the integrity of the Pick 3 games let alone have them give me computerized generated QUICK PICKS! Think about... They have a super computer that can calculate odds of certain combinations based on hsitory and such. They will give the worse numbers possible!
