The cycle is 21 draws for the pick 3, I started last Thursday 10/16 and will continue through Wednesday 11/5 with the same combo for the evening and the day.

The cost @ $1 straight for both mid and eve games is $14/week.

The same script was used, once with mid day data, and again with evening data. For the entire 21 days, the combo stays the same.

Since BOTH sets contained 2 hots, 6 neutrals and 2 colds, I picked one combo from the 216 available per game.

Those picks are

PA Pick 3 Mid Day = 390

PA Pick 3 Evening = 155

The cycle being 21 days means 3 weeks of play for a grand total of $42 spent. That is the cost regardless of a hit. And only a straight hit counts... if either comes out BOX, that means I was wrong with the guess.... if one comes out for the wrong game, such as 155 in the day or 390 in the evening, I was still wrong... if one would hit if I had the wild ball... still wrong.

Though I could cut it to a 50 cent ticket, I also have a 28 draw cycle of PA Match 6 starting on 11/6, and that is $14 per week as well, so the $14 budget is not random, it is the cheapest way to play multiple games... pick 3, pick 5 and Match 6 all cost $14 per week. While I could easily play all 3 concurrently for $42 per week, this budget is more sensible. In 2026 I roll in 3 weeks of pick 5 for a 10 week cycle covering the 3 games. $140 for 10 weeks of daily play is surely a conservative budget by anyone's standards. Plus, a single hit on the pick 3 covers the cost of 3.5 full 10 week cycles. At $14 per week, there is a very possible chance to have 2026 be "on the house". I may still finish out this year only with the pick 3, much of that depends on if there is a hit in this cycle.

2026 will go Match 6, then pick 3 then pick 5... repeat cycles.

The last day of this pick 3 cycle happens to be my birthday... $500 would be a nice present...
