Question: What's the one thing that everybody who posts in this forum has in common?
Answer: We're all trying to win a Take5 jackpot.
But that isn't so easy, is it?? You could also say that something we all have in common is that none of us has hit all 5 numbers on the same line too!
But I do think it's fair to say that we do a pretty darn good job of hitting 3 numbers. The proof of that is this; All you have to do is scroll back through this forum and you'll see one of the regular posters reporting they had a 3 number hit on fairly regular basis. Earlier this year Mink reported he had a four number hit. So we're not half bad at analyzing and picking numbers.
Which brings me to this; 2015 is about one month from being half over. The 6 is the 2015 hit leader closely followed by the 29 and 17. Those three numbers will most likely be the hit leaders for the entire year. I think it makes very good sense to play them most times you play the balance of 2015. I don't mean play them on every line you play, and I don't mean you should play them every time you play.
If you're wondering why (with seven months left in this year) I believe they'll hit the most in 2015, it's because in past years the behavior of the hit leaders for the year shows they had either hit the most by mid-year, or were very close to the number that was the hit leader on June 30th of the same year.
In 2010 the 6 had a total of 58 hits. By June 30th, it was in 4th place with 26 hits. (the 14 had 30 hits)
In 2011 the 16 had 58 hits. By June 30th, it was tied for first place with the 3 with 32 hits.
In 2012 the 19 had 58 hits. By June 30 it was in 8th place with 25 hits. (The 19 went ballistic in the 2nd half of 2012)
In 2013 the 7 had 59 hits. By June 30th it lead the way with 32 hits.
We all know the 6 is sitting at 31 hits so far this year, so by June 30 it could have 34 or more hits. The 29 has 27 hits and the 17 has 26. They're all positioned very strongly to have the most hits in 2015. G5
