NO KIDDING !

But I'd venture to say that 'most' people on here feel very strongly towards a couple of numbers every draw - THAT is what I mean by a 'sure thing'.

I do NOT mean 'sure thing' as in 'guaranteed to win', I mean 'sure thing' as in 'I am playing these X numbers NO MATTER WHAT'.

Fair enough

What I do is pick three of my numbers that are a 'for sure'

A man woke up at midnight doubled over in pain. He goes to the emergency room, a doctor examines him and tells him he was born woith three testicles, and the third one just descended, no big deal, simple operation.

The guy is a player and tells the doctor, No way , he says, I've been looking for something like this all my life Doc.

He heads to the nearest bar - this is Vegas, no closing times - and sees on... [ More ]

What I do is pick three of my numbers that are a 'for sure' - those are a given - those are in play for every game on draw night.

That leaves two other numbers to choose, so I wheel a predetermined set of numbers for one, and a predetermined set of numbers for the last number, and those are my games.

My 10 games will look like this

1-2-3-4-5

1-2-3-4-8

1-2-3-4-9

1-2-3-4-10

1-2-3-4-11

I like that answer, Pretty much says everything i had in mind. Definitly don't come into the game blindfolded, if you can narrow the odds down then go for it....be creative. I've managed to narrow it down to 22 numbers i had to play in the past to just 11 and I'm still figuring out ways to lower those odds to which time of the day one of those 11 are going to come out.

I look at it kinda like a stock car race:

Educate yourself a teeny bit, and you won't bet on certain individuals winning from the last 5 rows - depending on who they are of course.

I don't think I'm betting the farm on Kyle Petty to win anything anytime soon, even though he IS a great guy.

Educate yourself, and you can rule out X amount of numbers hitting, and that X may be 5, or 25, or anything in-between, I think the BEST we can do is narrow our selection down to about... [ More ]

i like your answer to guesser. I personally choose not to think so much of how the odds are against me, I like to feel that I'm beating the lottery at its own game no matter how random the #'s are....dunno, I have more confidence and I win more money when I look at things that way...heck, life in general that way

Your logic in that balls are events is identical to mine.

What is drawn is just 5 'representatives' of 55 different occurences.

(or if you get right down to it, 6 representatives of 97 different occurences).

To know how difficult it is to pick winning numbers is to simply look at any of the 'prediction' threads, sometimes a person will get 3 out of 15, but not too often, and these are people (us) using all kinds of different 'systems' and theories that we have defined and refined in our... [ More ]

You're right that Soduku is just an exercise in logic. Numbers are convenient in a 9 by 9matrix because it's easy to see which ones are still missing from any row, column, or square, but it would also work perfectly well with letters, symbols, colors, or whatever.

As far as the numbers drawn in lottery games, I think it's clear and I'm pretty sure that Game Girl and I see the same reality. Math is incredibly useful for analysis and any number of other things, but it has nothing to do with wha... [ More ]

Some folks AIM to pick winning numbers based only on particular number statistics, hot/cold, due, overdue, etc.

I don't play like that, my criteria is almost 100% the opposite of that, but all told, I hit 2 or 3 of the WB about as often as others do.

It's rather funny that no matter how many 'systems' a person may have, when it's all said and done, overall, our results are about the same. I'm thinking about putting 55 numbers on a dart board...

Of course no one could predict all the correct numbers in one game, I'm just saying that mystic (astrology, numerology, dreams) and logic (history, equations, probabilities) are one in the same. No matter how you come up with the numbers they will always come out the way they are meant to come out for that perticular day no matter how random we think it is...

I see what you mean on your 4th paragraph. You definitly have a point there.

There are a lot of great predictors on here, like lott... [ More ]

Who are these people that you say can use brain power ahead of time to select numbers, or the people that can just foresee numbers ahead of time, and where can I meet them ?

I only look at numbers themselves based on tendencies for things to either happen or not happen, and my examples are, would you pick ALL of the numbers from wednesday's game again for tomorrow's game ? I mean, would you play ONE GAME tomorrow night with the numbers 2-13-22-48-50 and the PB of 2 also ? And,... [ More ]

Im not really saying that math has nothing to do with it, there is definitly logic behind the numbers game. I mean there is really proof of that from how often people here hit so casually...I guess what I'm trying to say is that logic and mystic concepts coexist with each other nicely. For example : People can predict numbers before they come out using brain power ahead of time and some people can just foresee what numebers are going to come out before time...

Luck is definitly on both sides... [ More ]

So, TheGameGrl and The Truth, you guys are saying 'math' doesn't have much to do with it?

Much like the puzzle craze Sudoku, where although involving numbers it's purely an exercise in logic?

Interesting apsect I guess, as the first Keno tickets were not numbers at all but characters of the Chinese alphabet.

My advice is very similar to hers...I had to come to terms that the lottery wasn't against me, that the lottery wasn't what made me lose so much. It was just my strategy, the numbers are going to come out regardless of how you play it, its not going to adjust itself because you decide to play that day. The numbers are alrdy set in motion for the day, the randomness has alrdy taken effect before the percieved randomness begins...Take the added risk if you feel you need to. often we might make the...

Cointoss- Try a different method (perspective). Think of the numbers as blue marbles. Each marble sitting side by side. They each are the *SAME* color so they carry the same value of hitting. The greatest distortion people use is the illusion that *being* a counting number somehow makes the adjacent counting number more *valuable* if it hits or doesnt hit. That numeric that didnt hit has no more value or less value then if you substitute any other NON hitting digit. My Dad taught me that trick... [ More ]
