What if the cycle for pick 3 is too short?

Published:

As this last week goes on with an added $2 hit on the match 6, I tracked the pick 3 paper play for this week as well... the mid day pick came out straight today... nothing ventured, nothing gained, but 21 days might be a better cycle length... on a limited 7 cycle back test, there was more than 1 hit in that third week including 2 straights, though most were boxed...

2026 on a 10 week cycle? Maybe... 4 weeks Match 6, 3 weeks Pick 3 and 3 weeks Pick 5... cost stays the same, so why not?

Always much to think about...

Entry #520

A 21 day cycle of pick 3 puts the chances of having an all neutral draw at almost 96%

7 days = 70%
14 days = 90%
21 days = 95.76%

Based on the rolling back test program over the entire histories of mid day (RNG) and evening (Ball Draw) in Pennsylvania.

That obviously does not mean that the one combo I pick will come out, but it shows some empirical evidence that there is something to the fill scheme in the random data... particularly since BOTH games that are selected in different ways hold a similar percentage.
