The cast included Walter Connolly, a well-known character actor of the '30s. He played the uncle and arguably one of the most pessimistic roles in the history of screen. He constantly looked at the negative side of things and would say- just as I predicted. It's a disaster. We're done fo... [ More ]

Hey, It sounds interesting.Try to match 4 out of 10 numbers to try and beat Pigskin's record of 3 out of 10.I think I can do that while understanding that it isn't the same as getting paid $100 for matching 4 out 5 without the powerball.

pigskin,It looks like you've still got the bragging rights. None of us had more than one number in our ten number selections from the 5/53 pool. JAG331 had the 41 ball and I called the 53. I'm not discouraged though. I've had some success with the method I used to derive those number selections. The lottery is random but not perfectly random, so no method is going to give the best results every time it's used.I'm glad to see some of the more serious minds in Jackpot Games taking up The Pigskin C...

The enigma code was a type of encryption for data. Predicting numbers for the lottery is a little different.

Hey Pigskin,I really doubt that there is a formula for random numbers. Nobody has proven yet that analysing numbers gives you any advantage.Yet I do so because you get a sense of what is good or bad number like you can judge who is a good person or bad person from your experience in life.I think with the enigma code it was one of those things that requires extremely difficult formula to generate but easy to decipher.Powerball the best I am told is random. A code that predicts random numbers? I a... [ More ]

AyeYour enthusiam is to be commended. However, whenever someone mentions a concerted effort to bring the PB jackpot to its knees, it seems to generate no more than a ho-hum response. Let us all make a New Year's resolution to work at beating. Hey, this is serious business. I put a lot of time in on this thing. My problem is that I don't really understand a lot of things being mentioned such as optimized wheels, 2if3 or the like. What is that? I take what I call the practical or garden var... [ More ]

I don't spend much time on the draw when it's at a low jackpot but I'll submit the following numbers...5,9,18,20.32.35, 36,37, 43 and 48. For the PB, I'm looking at 9, 31,27 or 4. I wasn't going to play tonight but a hit is possible. Just one ticket.

Yeah, we all get into the hype of hundreds of millions of dollars, but $3,240,000, lump sum post tax, is a significant amount of money. It could help fund my huge jackpot win in the future!I spent $4 on Wednesday's drawing, and that's because I Powerplay. $2 or $4 today, so the jackpot level doesn't much influence my spending.

I have to say, it seems a better choice after you have figured out all the numbers you think are gonna come up, you bet on the opposite.Everyone seems they want to recuperate. Don't be sore losers. It will only cost you $1 to play.But I take this low jackpot opportunity to make a mockery of the game by betting my dollar on 1 7 21 23 31 - 26 yeap it is all odd numbers that has no chance of winning.It is part of my system not to take the game so seriously and have fun with my picks till the jackpo...

Well folks, the smoke has cleared from the big jackpot being hit on Wednesday, but pigskin has set the bar rather high with his three numbers hit out of ten numbers selected. At that rate, he could hit all five numbers out of sdventeen numbers selected. But what the heck, ten numbers are a lot cheaper to cover, so I've dusted off an old method of mine that will alow me to go with ten numbers. Come on people; with all the theories, filters, wheels, terminology, history, programs, concepts and bra... [ More ]
