I ordered his Pick-4 MoneyMap System last year ($495.00). After losing almost $10k playing the Hoosier Lottery's Daily4 game, I found out that they no longer use ping-pong balls, but switched to an electronic random number generator sometime in 2000, and they won't say when they changed it over. They didn't bother to publicize the switch, so people think they're still using the PPB method because the program is animated to look like ping-pong balls. They use this machine for all of their online games, including their 6/48 lotto. I also learned that the Hoosier Lottery tracks players' selections on a central computer before each drawing; they know which numbers have been played, how much has been bet on each number, and even where each ticket was purchased. I no longer play in Indiana.
Back to Steve Player's systems, after tweaking it a little, I used the Pick-4 MoneyMap in Ohio, and won $6,800.00 in one drawing (17 $1.00 box bets on 2448), so I believe his theories are sound; the problem wasn't the system, it was the game. Obviously, no one wins every day, but the MoneyMap System will dventually reveal signifigant opportunities in a Pick-4 game. I had invested about $100.00 over five days in Ohio before I hit the $6.8k, and that night I spent $30.00; $13.00 on 2488 and $17.00 on 2448 (I actually meant to bet $15.00 on each number, but I gave an attendant the wrong bet slip. Lucky me, huh?). As I said, I had to tweak the system a bit (seperate charts for overall hits on each digit, pairs and doubles, and frequency charts for each position. All of this info is on the system chart, but it's difficult to see if you don't separate it on different sheets of paper), but once I had all the information broken down, it was just a matter of waiting for the law of averages to take effect.
Any good lottery system is based on the law of averages. The major innovation of the MoneyMap System is entering your numbers vertically on the chart from lowest to highest. Since all bets are boxed, this method works very well in a game using ping-pong balls. I don't believe it will work in a game using an RNG. No one has been able to convince me that a computerized electronic random number generator has the same odds as four bins of ping-pong balls, especially when the lottery already knows which numbers I've played and how much I've bet on each number. However, they still advertise the odds for the Pick-4 game as 1:10,000. They tell me that the reason they track players' selections prior to each drawing is "fiscal responsibility. If too much money is bet on a certain number and that number hits, we might end up paying out more than we took in." Their words, not mine. The way I see it, they have no business with that information. When I buy a Pick-4 ticket, my odds (supposedly) are 10,000 to 1 against me. That's the chance I take. Without published liability limits in place, as most states have, if they have to pay out more than they take in, then that's a chance they take. Another thing that bothers me is this: I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree (not the part that bothers me), but I know that if something is computerized it uses a PROM chip or an EPROM chip, which means it can be programmed. To carry it further, if they have their RNG tied into their "central computer," they can easily minimize payouts on their daily games, and build their lotto jackpot at will. We recently had a jackpot of over $28M. In a 6/48 lotto game, the published odds are 1:12,271,512. We have four border states, and we also get some regular players from Wisconsin. With ticket sales of twenty million dollars a draw (about average), the math doesn't come out. How can you sell twenty million tickets twice a week for three months and not cover every one of those 12,271,512 combinations at least once??? This means that at least 16 million combinations, 4 million more than the total possible, were duplicated for each of twelve weeks or more, somehow without hitting the winning combination even once. My advice? If you're betting more than a dollar a night, don't play the Hoosier Lottery games. Find a state near you that still uses ping-pong balls to draw their numbers. Odds of 10,000 to 1 are still pretty steep but, with a good system, they are manageable.
Well, I've gotten that off my chest; sorry for the diatribe, but I want to get this information out there so Indiana players know what they're up against. On to other things.
I've just ordered Steve Player's CashOverlap System ($495.00). Does anyone out there have it already and, if so, have you done any good? I can see from the newsletter that I'm going to have to break it down to its components and reassemble it for use in Ohio. I just can't see spending $800.00 a draw (as implied by "Stage 2"). Anyway, I'd like to know if anyone has hit $1,000 to $3,000 in their state's Pick-3 game using the CashOverlap system. I haven't yet received my "registration form" (which stipulates that you won't seek a refund if you're not happy; I'm not a lawyer, so I'm not sure of the legalities of this policy), but if anyone who actually ordered it can comment on this system, I would be grateful.
Continued good luck to all of you.
