I won the "Filter" Jackpot

I got my filter settings right for last nights Powerball draw and had the 5 main numbers in my filtered set of 2164 lines which also contained 5 4/5's and 58 3/5's. My maximum play which I am testing is 24 lines (100 lines for group play), but I only had 1x1+PB and 1x2+PB in my 24 lines. Now I just need to test/adjust over the next few draws to try and get some consistency in the 5/5 and 4/5 appearances in my filtered sets. Any suggestions on how to get the 2164 filtered sets down to 24 containing at least one 3/5 for a start?

I am also testing a similar process in my 6/49 lotto game and will paste the 24 lines for tonights draw a little later.

Any suggestions on how to get the 2164 filtered sets down to 24 containing at least one 3/5 for a start?

Only dedicated wheelers can do that. The principle is you know somewhere in your 2164 lines is the winning combination but of course you don't know which one it is. However a dedicated wheeler can take those 2164 lines and build a wheel with a requested guarantee let's say 3 if 5 and it will use the minimal set of X lines that can offer that guarantee using combinations of those 2164 lines. If the next draw to come is one of those 2164, you get the guarantee and also have an exposure to the jackpot (assuming one of your lines is the winning combination) proportional to X/2164. In my program this is called the "mother covering" concept where those 2164 lines are the "mother". Focused initial lines (containing fewer than the maximum possible numbers) are best suited for this type of construction, otherwise in your case you have to construct a v=total drawn numbers, k=5, t=3, m=5 wheel (derived from the mother) for your example. How many X lines are needed to offer a desired guarantee depends only on the "structure" of the initial lines. A dedicated wheeler will produce the minimal such wheel.

The winning numbers for Lotto were 2,3,25,35,38,39. Got 1x3 in the Lotto and 1x3 in the LottoPlus so got 44% of my money back. I need to get at least a 1x4 in three draws to break even. Will see what happens over the next two draws.

Tx for your response lottoarchitect. Are you referring to your LottoArchitect programme or something else? I am slowly working my way through LA trying to find a workable strategy but it takes a bit of getting used to :-)

I refer to Wheel Generator. LA can do a lot of things but can't produce abbreviated coverings, even more this specific requirement.

Thanks lottoarchitect

Nice work. How many filters were needed to get down to 2164 lines?

No luck......only got a couple of 2 number matches which doesn't pay anything.........back to the drawing board.

I have over 150 filters and constantly testing and adding new ones from thoughts/ideas that LP members give......some broad flters and about 36 that "Must" pass.........these are the ones I am currently tracking and adjusting after each draw.
