There is another point I would like to make, and that is the format of the previous draws. For myself and in my minds eye, I read (and most people do) from top to bottom, left to right. I suggest when looking at previous draws it is much easier to view and therefore easier to absorb by listing the results top to bottom just like four4me has them listed on the first page of this thread.

It may be a minor point to some, but for myself it helps immensely. Most results are listed with the l... [ More ]

It is a matter of refining your tactics to get winners. Since you mentioned wheel 5 with 6 numbers drawn, use 5/39 wheels since you are not choosing the bonus ball on the play slip. The bonus ball is pulled from the 39 as four4me mentions for more lower tier prizes.

I look at the latest draw and compare it with recent draws three to six back for any similarities and then go back no more than two months looking for similar draws of the latest and the followers that fell after the similar p... [ More ]

We can't commit crimes here such as exchanging copyrighted materials, systems and software authors make a living selling. It would get the site owner in trouble if such things went on. Take a minute and read the rules on the left column menu as you agreed to them by posting. BobP

Actually, Floyd, if you know number patterns combined with strategies, you do NOT have to play all the numbers to win. For example, I have had 4 out of 6 numbers about 7 times in the last 2 years. Not the big one yet, but it's coming

Yup. The first book wasn't enough, so buy another. And another. Gail Howard no doubt says thank you, since she has to rely on sales for a living instead of cashing her winning lottery tickets.

if your lotto game averages one repeat number a drawing, then you need to include at least one repeat number in your wheel.

You need to include all of the numbers, because you don't know which of them will repeat. Then there are the numbers that come from the 30 to 50 numbers that didn't come... [ More ]

Whether you use a Gail Howard wheel or a Bluskov wheel, a wheel is only as good as the numbers you put in it. Therefore, to SELECT those numbers you need to study her number selection strategies in Lottery Master Guide, which is also advertised on this site.

Number selection strategies are based on what is likely to happen. For example, if your lotto game averages one repeat number a drawing, then you need to include at least one repeat number in your wheel.

You did not buy the wrong boo... [ More ]

This is true while they draw the bonus ball from the same machine it only helps you to win lower teir prizes. And i never use the bonus ball for my history.

And yes i do the two wheel stragety.

Your post suggests you are playing this as a straight up Pick-5 game as the 6th ball from the draw isn't included in your draw history leaving it out of the calculation.

Based on the above it appears numbers from the prior draw repeat or don't, roughly 50/50. One strategy would be to plan for no repeats and strip 5 numbers from those to select from lowering the odds on the days this strategy works, or make two wheels one with no repeat numbers and one with multiple repeat numbers.

Here are the last 30 draws BM5 do a count up of all the digits how many 1's '2's 3's etc

Take notice of how many days numbers repeated from draw to draw. This can really screw up your play if you didn't include at least three of those digits in your wheel.

Decide if you willing to not put certain cold numbers in your wheel. A scenario i tried for a while that would have worked if i stuck with it. I put cold digits in a lot of my wheels and it didn't work.

I've all but gave up playing this ga... [ More ]

Gail Howard has a wheel strategy for Maryland's bonus match 5.

But you must consider several things how many numbers in the wheel, are they the right numbers in the wheel, and how much can you afford to play.

Since no one knows from day to day what numbers might be drawn. all wheels are basically a crap shoot. you are trying to trap the numbers by placing them in a wheel.

First i would develop a strategy and try it on paper. If your strategy works then stick to it.

I'm guessing Gail's book doesn't specifically address the MD-5/39 game with bonus ball. Nice game, good lower tier prizes, the bonus ball helps you win not like a power or mega ball that makes it harder.

There are two halves to winning a lottery, sort of a ying and yang thing.

On one side is number selection where you choose a field larger then the size of a single ticket in the hope the winning numbers will be among them. The only way to guarantee all the winning numbers will be among... [ More ]

I get the point. I've just always wondered if there is some actual strategery in playing the lottery and that it's more than just sheer dumb luck. I think a lot of posters on this site have the same feeling.

You're simply up against odds that are heavily against you, and there is no book that will change that.

I'll offer you a wheel for free, and it guarantees winning the jackpot, subject to the usual disclaimers on wheels. Just pick any 5 numbers and wheel them in the only 5 number combination you can make with 5 numbers. If the numbers in your wheel are all drawn you are guaranteed to win, and it will be the jackpot.

wheel five with 6 numbers?

SoBe Yourself — Sat, 22 Sep 2007 03:55:46 GMT

I recently purchased Gail Howard's book on pick 5 games. Here in MD, we have Bonus Match 5 where you can pick five numbers but 6 are drawn. So I tried the strategies and failed miserably. Is this because I bought the wrong book or do I just have really bad luck
