Total cost $30 Total winnings $12 Net loss $18 Over all not horrible, I was in on 5 drawings. (Plus 3 double play drawings) The $12 will go toward playing the next draw of the PB/DP monday and the MM tuesday. The verdict... just as good as any other method used to pick a single line (including QP). Not sure of the next use outside of the next jackpot games... maybe it is time to shut it down until the backtest is complete for the pick3... [ More ]

Total cost to date = $11 Total won = $0 Net loss = - $11 Getting ready to drop another $8 on the Power Ball for tonight's draw. I am thinking maybe ALL 7 sets of follower data should be combined into a mega list and the pick taken from there, but I need to figure out how to code that, so no changes to the system for the remainder of the test.

matched 1+0 on the double play. The powerball pick I had for the main game, 22, was picked and that pays $7, but it does not count... so test to date Cost $8 Won 0 Net loss -$8

Original Blog Entry: Test # 2, The Jackpot Games (PB & MM)

The next round of testing will begin Monday (9/11) with the Power ball and end on Saturday(9/16), also with the power ball.

There are actually 3 games involved, the Mega Millions, The Power ball, and PA's Power Ball Double Play (a separate game with a separate draw history, also a different prize payout... no multiplier and top prize always $10M)

Since you MUST enter a draw into the main PB game, there will be 2 picks for each powerball draw. Adding the multiplier and double draw entry fee, that means both picks are eligible for prizes in both games. For the purpose of this test, results will be separated, so the first line only counts for the main game, and the second only counts for the double draw. Any coincidental payouts won't count.

2 tickets loaded with options for the power ball is a cost of $8

The Mega Millions with the megaplier is a cost of $3

Total System Test Cost = $30 across 3 PB and 2 MM draws. Test duration = 6 days. Pick Method = My Super Seven Python follower script described in detail in earlier blog posts.

The Goal = A hit or combination of hits that exceed the test cost of $30.

The expectation... it is all coincidental anyway, the realistic expectation is that I donate $30 to Older Pennsylvanians

Unlike the last test, this only has to work once!... [ More ]
