There was this guy at my work who has been playing the same N.C. Cash 5 numbers for the past ten years, with way better odds for the past 10 years and they have yet to hit. He said he has gotten 4 out of 5 twice. It is what it is.

This just proves that any numbers can pull it off. Some players having been consistently playing the same numbers for decades without winning, but they will not have it any other way. Sometimes it's pure luck * Gloria Mackenzie

Faithful to consistently play the same numbers for over 5 years.

Brave for skipping draws and only playing them when the JP reaches a certain threshold.

Maybe we don't find luck, it find us

Third positive lottery story so far this week and it is only Tuesday.

Like his strategy, takes a lot of patience which I have none.

Best of luck with his winnings.
