I have a Keno test file in .XLS format, and another one in screwey .RTF format I will e-mail anyone that needs a number set to test against.

Mine is 20 out of 80, FWIW.

If you find what I suggested doesn't satisfy your needs, or if it wasn't clear enough so's you can understand it, you can probably get better instructions and help by posting this down on the Jackpot Games forum, or on the Lottery Systems discussion board.

On the other hand, if the concept I described is clear, but the mechanics of getting it done hasn't come across, I'll be glad to provide some examples. If you post the request on Lottery Systems I'd guess the users there wil... [ More ]

After re-reading your post I have to confess to mis-reading it the first time.

I don't have a clue how large a wheel it would take to completely cover so many numbers. Depending on how many tickets you want to buy, you might consider (pick 5) full wheeling 8 individual sets of 6 numbers, then merging the two sets to give you 24 lines of picks. Afterward, if you wanted to spend more money, say $50, you could use the same sets and mix them on Excel to come up with a second wheel with 48 lines... [ More ]

Welcome to LP.

I've had middling luck getting things down to 14 numbers, as you appear to have done. I've found I got my best results by full wheeling two 7 number sets ..... running them up side by side as 21 picks.

It's worked fairly well on the prediction board. I don't live in a place with keno, so I can't comment how it would work in real life.

Good Luck

Hello,

I'll get right to it...

Just wondering if anyone could figure out how many different combinations from the information below:

If I picked 45 numbers from the 70 in Keno and thought that 10 out of the 20 winning numbers were in the 45 that I picked, what are the different combinations that I would need to have in a group of 10 per ticket?

Eg:

45 Numbers I Picked from 70

1,3,4,5,6,7,9,11,14,16,17,18,19,21,22,24,25,28,29,30,32,35,36,

42,43,44,45,47,48,49,51,5... [ More ]
