Improved odds of a 5W Powerball win, or coincidence?Reply
The reason the odds are 1 in 11,238,513 is there are 11,238,513 possible outcomes and only one of them will be drawn. And there is always only one outcome regardless how many combos we play. What's your plan for reducing the number of outcomes to 314,432, kidnapping half the ping pong balls?

Digit string projection for P2,P3,P4,P5 Games.Reply
You should focus more on pattern projections to get the parameters (pairs, doubles etc) right . On the average doubles and distinct draws occurs in similar rate ( normal distribution). Trying to win every draw is not going to happen, all you need is a good hit. Remember , the odds is stack against you, pattern projection is a narrow opening to capitalize.

Ohio lotteryReply
The reality is that, out of any number between 00000-99999 could show up in the next draw. It would be cheating if they pull out some number that is outside this. penta, quads, triplets, doubles have different odds but positionally, any number/ball(-0-9) has same odds. There is no surprise if a game pulls 00000, 00001, 00002 or 61110,61112, 61113 rare but possible. Calling cheating is just mistake. You have to just go by the flow and catch short term patterns/tr
