He seems to predict in a similar way as I used to, but there he only talks about sums, I also used many other patterns.

Hi mprober,

I have found that up to 75% of the time (at least in Ohio anyway) one digit usually returns from the previous drawing. You can eliminate a good chunk of numbers and it's a good place to start. As Todd pointed out, the filters in the deflator are useful for that. Hope this helps.

Digits give the greatest reduction, then pairs and last 3 digits whole pick 3 numbers.

With a lot of study and even a lot more practice you can also do digits reduction.

Any kind of reduction is risky, study, practice and study and practice more and more again.

Developing reduction intuition is important and it might come sooner or later with enough practice, I had it.

Pairs reduction was a part of the making of that prediction and as seen on it, I got the winning pick 3 number 5 times out of 6 possible times, including the 1 straight permutation out of the 6.

If played straight off-line it would have given $500, but it was 76 singles and 61 doubles predicted, so it would have been very risky.

And no,... [ More ]

Mprober,

Yes, there are a lot of ways to limit combos, none of them safe. Here are some I use:

-combo must have at least one repeat from last three digits drawn.

-eliminate combos containing the digit out the longest.

-eliminate doubles and triples.

-eliminate combos not containing at least one high, one low, one even, and one odd digit.

-eliminate combos that have played in the last 7 days.

Hope that helps.

Good luck

Playing any lottery game is gambling, when you try to be safe and cover every possibility you're going to spend more than you win. That's the way the games are designed and that the way they have to be for the states to make money.

Why don't you take a look at patterns made by: Sums, Last Digits of Sums, Roots, Even-Odd, High-Low, In-Out, Widths, Etc.?

As to your question, there might be no safe way, there is always a risk of failure.

But the more that you study and try, maybe the better that you might get, up to some limit.

I thought about making a long post, but Why repeat what I have already said so many times before?

Just read my old threads and posts, there is more than enough there to keep anybody busy fo... [ More ]

Each states' data is unique. In Oklahoma, there are often repeats of a number within 14 days, both straight and boxed, so that generalization wouldn't work here. Keep looking at your state's draw history though because it will give you good information about what to expect. Good luck

I was researching last night and noticed that most boxed numbers don't repeat within 14-20 days. also I noticed that if you take the last singles number and do a wrap on it you won't have a repeat from that set of numbers either, they repeat like this maybe once or twice a month. any thoughts

If you upgraded to Platinum membership you would have full access to the lottery results search engine, which provides answers to these and many other questions.

For example, on the number of days between repeats of a box combo, just run a search for a combo over a stretch of time, and then count the number of times it occurred within that stretch of time. A simple division will give you the average number of days between hits of that combo.

joker THEY really need to cut back your hours in a given workday.

Even if you choose to eliminate combos you think WON'T hit essentially your still doing this when you choose combos you think WILL hit.

I think the safest way to reduce p-3 combos would be in a bomb shelter.

Is there no one with any insight

is there a safe way to reduce pick3 combos?

mprober — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 22:48:50 GMT

i'm trying a new approach and i was wondering if anyone knows of a safe way to eliminate number combos from the pick3. instead of trying to predict which number will be drawn is there a way to predict which numbers will not be drawn? also does anyone know how many draws/days a boxed number will go before repeating, on average
