15 minutes before cut-off time for the GA midday Cash3, you see a post on LP telling you ### is coming today.... You neglect your conference call that's about to start, ignore the fact that its pouring rain and you have on heels, and go running out of the office to play the number!!!

Only to find out 40mins later that the number didn't fall..... Repeat process for evening draw!

Hmmm, could this be addiction

$20's: 660

$10's: 160

$5's: 115

$1's: 15

Total: 950

I see two doubles and a no-match, a position-one repeat, 2 position-two repeats, and 2 position-three repeats. Of course you cant forget the 2 back pair repeats...and if you put a leading zero in front of the 15, then there is a two-digit return floati... [ More ]

I play evening pick 3 and we usuallty get out ticket late afternoon...then when we watch TV and see a room number like you mentuoned, or something with a 3 digit number, I think, darn, that's what's going to hit tonight, I should have played that one... [ More ]

So I would play 1, 13, 24, 48, 46, and 51 on lotto. Never worked though.

Old Vegas joke- a very attractive woman is watching a hi-roller playing roulette. He nitices her and throws her a black $100 chip and tells her to bet her age. ($100 pays $3500). She bets 26. The ball lands on 36 and she feints! Had she bet her real age....

If you have to travel to another state or country for a week or two or three, in order to have peace of mind you play in advance all your regular numbers, just in case they fall. Because you know, the day you don't play them, they hit, it's kinda like Murphy's law. If I wanted that to happen it would never happen, but if I didn't want it to happen it happens. LOL jarasan
