Round 1 Cost... $80 for 10 draws

Wins... 3 1+1 @ $2 each

Net Loss... technically free because the entire test is on the house, but... -$74

Round 2 of 10 draws with the same combo starts tomorrow evening. That cost will also be $80

Final round will only have 6 plays, therefore $48.

The brute forcing of playing one combo with all 4 cash balls is what makes the expense, but on a hit it will definitely be all worth it.

So, total cost $208... wins thus far $6... current "state" is -$202

But remember, the only way I can take a shot at this is with a straight hit on the pick 3, so out of pocket cost is $0, plus I made back the money spent in the first few weeks of the pick 3 system... and a few bucks profit... and the next few weeks of pick 3 are also on the house. I shouldn't need to throw any money at the pick 3 out of pocket until late August. A box hit could keep that going longer... and a straight hit opens up another round of Cash 4 Life.

Next round for the pick 3 will employ the new QP generator I wrote that selects a random pick only using the neutral numbers from each column to generate a combo. It was definitely easy to write AND test with a loop to see if the picks were indeed constrained to the 3 separate neutral sets... they were. Also wrote a version for the Cash 4 Life should there be another round of that.

It is a best guess based on the tools at hand. The pick 3 neutral sets cut the choices from 1,000 possible combos down to about 300... the QP just makes selecting from the resultant sets easier. I do not know where else to turn to interpret the results any further... yet. The QP generator should buy some time for new ideas while still staying in the chase.
