Thanks Jag331, Maddog10 and Pinwebguy.Good luck to you all on Wednesday. I have a strange feeling that someone will have 4 numbers correct next Wednesday. Since I'm not in a Powerball State, I hope one of you will benefit from it. LOLlitebets27

The 16 ball completely eluded everyone. Litebets27 gets honorable mention for catching two numbers. Does anyone have any retrospective wisdom to offer about this draw? My numbers were a bust for the second drawing in a row.Thanks to all challengers,aye'I actually had 11 and 16 in my original 20 because of their frequency numbers, but dropped them out when I halved the numbers because 11 seemed too hot (I also dropped out 32 because it had been in 3 straight drawings) and numbers from 12 to 21 do...

Thanks Aye and Kbcherokee,Now if I can figure out how to keep the red Powerball number out of the white Powerball lines my results could be even better. I had the 11 and the 12 in the wrong spots. LOL Getting closer!litebets27

I had managed to whittle down 11 and 47 as my two most due numbers, so I'm glad to see that one of them showed up. Good work, litebets...see yous on Wednesday.

I've revamped my entire Pigskin Challenge selection process (yeah, I know you've heard that one before!!), now I just need to calculate the numbers and get my car washed by this evening. The proof (or lack thereof) of my system will be in the drawing! See y'all tonight.

ayenowitall — Sat, 29 Jan 2005 18:30:20 GMT

getpaid,That's a very astute observation. Getting one number right from ten numbers selected is probably fairly common because that's about the chance expectation: (10/53)x5 = 0.9433962264150.... In other words, no matter how you pick them with any system or no system at all, you can can expect to catch one number by dumb luck alone. I don't think that necessarily means that we're just guessing though. It just means that our methods aren't altogether consistent or perfect yet.MADDOG10 managed to... [ More ]

getpaid,Yes, that's the issue, how do you climb above randomness? My short term goal is to consistently (more than 60% of the time) hit at least two numbers out of ten.

getpaid — Sat, 29 Jan 2005 16:48:07 GMT

Hey guys I concerned about one thing. Why is it that we pick 10 numbers and mostly get one number right out of 10With those odds we will get 5 out of 53 which means that we are pretty much guessing. so my question is what strategies are you guys using because my doesn't pay.I think I am gonna be more radical with my picks.

ayenowitall — Sat, 29 Jan 2005 02:12:13 GMT

JAG,This just gives us all a little time to sharpen out pencils and tweak our systems in preparation for the big money. Actually, any of it would be big money for me. I play every Powerball drawing regardless of the jackpot size. Neither the best system nor the best luck can help you if you're not in the game, right

JAG331 — Sat, 29 Jan 2005 01:55:09 GMT

Just a thought:It's good to see the Pigskin Challenge alive and well, although the jackpot has been hit four times in the last month and a half. We can only hope there will be even more interest with super jackpots.

ayenowitall — Sat, 29 Jan 2005 01:39:39 GMT

Hey Chief,Don't strain your brain trying to make sense of my numbers. This is a rather different method from the one I've been using recently. I do use the entirety of the history for the current Powerball matrixes, but I probably use that history in a way that's very different from the way you might use it. I've simply used the past drawings as a mechanism for a progression formula that I developed quite a few years ago. I've used the progression somewhat successfully with other jackpot games,...
