Top 5 PredictorsPrevious TopicNext Topic

How about the top 5 predictors getting together and prediciting what the numbers will be and that way you may come out with a Jackpot winner.  I've been reading the post and we have some awesome people working on predictions but having 5 of the top coming out with several numbers that they agree on could be worth a shot.

white balls-15,16,17,18,19,26,27,28,29,36,37,38,46,47,48,52,54

power balls-

8,14,17,19,24,28

don't know if these numbers are any good.thought i'd throw them out there for tonight.night do good or might be bust.

anyone else care to add to the pot?

Mike,

I'd join you in your initiative of posting numbers for PB tonight, but I can't at this time.  I've never played or looked at Powerball in my life  I don't even know when the drawing is or what day it is drawn (Wed., Sat.?).

The only way I could participate is 25 numbers from each participant for the white balls and no bogus ball predictions.  (That's what puts the parimutuel in parimutuel) and an even distribution of picks from each of the participants.

The Utopian solution would be to have a deflate option for specific jackpot games with the ability of members to check off which members' picks they want to deflate.  The check-off option for what specific players' picks you want to deflate would be a nice feature for any game.

Edit: By deflate option in the jackpot games I'm referring simply to the times a number was chosen.

I've been reflecting on this thread on and off this afternoon.  I'm one of the people who ignored your suggestion.  I might have joined a conversation, as I've joined this one, had someone responded.

I think there are several aspects of pick 5, pick 6, and jackpot games predicting you mightn't have considered.

1. It takes a lot of work to develop methods for predicting double digit games.  The people who manage to do it with any degree of success are able to do so because they worked hard, mostly alone, and persevered.  For the most part, nobody helped them, partly because nobody who's managed it is likely to tell anyone how to do it.
2. For most, doing the work-ups to get moderately successful numbers each draw is also a lot of work.  Nobody's helping anyone to do this.  The people who do it mostly work alone.
3. Jackpot games are paramutual.  The person who's done the work to win it, assuming someone has succeeded in doing so, has no reason to wish to share a piece of it with countless (fantasy, probably, but there you are) others who haven't done the homework and labor to learn how to predict, but who merely read a thread, or a prediction page.
4. These games aren't the same as pick 3 and pick 4.  Those numbers can be shared without any cost to the person who shared them.

The people who've agreed to share numbers here are generous.  They are giving and getting nothing in return.  I'm grateful to them for doing so because I hope to learn something.  If you use the numbers, win or lose, you might consider being grateful, also.

They're agreeing to do something that's not owed anyone in any way.

thankyou for your comments., while i agree with some of your points, i do not with all of them. 

first, while i see many predictions, and realize alot of time was spent on them, i do not see any jackpot winners here, and am willing to bet there have been none here(on big jackpots, ie powerball, megamillions, etc.) in the past. 

please dont lecture me about time either, sir, while i realize there are many that just look to someome else for tips, and spend no time of their own, i am not one of them. i spend approx. 5-6 hours every nite, for years now, and have prob. logged thousands of hours trying to figure things out, unsucessfully i might add., so save it.

further, while you may think that narrowing it down to 15 numbers plus 4-5 numbers for powerball is something great, i dont. i think anyone could do this over a period of time, and occasionally have 3-4 numbers, possibly even the powerball.  but that is a long way off from the jackpot in the end. further, the amount of combinations of 5 winning numbers out of 15 is enormous to say the least, and no one could possible play even a moderate percentage of them. even in a pool, unless you had tens of thousands to spend on each drawing.

my suggestion was such that it would add a different perspective to things and possible revive peoples excitement about the possibility of actually winning. if they seen 4-5 winning numbers coming out of a pool of say 10 numbers.  even with that, the odds would be astronomical, and even if everyone here played those 10 numbers, and they all came out of the 10, i can almost guarantee that no one would actually win the jackpot, and when it comes to 2nd place, where someone may have a good chance, its a fixed amount, so it is irrlevant how many win, you wouldnt be sharing it with anyone, so what r u talking about.

i stick with what i said, i believe, that people working together on something could get this done, but i dont believe anyone by themselves ever will, in the history or future of any big lotto anywhere. if you have proof of something different, i am willing to listen, otherwise i let the facts speak for themselves. when is the last multimillion dollars someone won using their system by themselves, who happened to be a member here.....?......thats what i thought...

How about the bottom 500 predicters getting together and predicting what the numbers won't be?

There is no formula or pattern looking forward or backward to tell you what the next numbers will be or what the previous numbers were.
