I've never had the same set of numbers, although my wife plays the same five all the time on Buckeye 5. Good luck to everyone in 2012!

Persistence will pay off in 2012--since playing my same chosen numbers 365 days in 2011 in Fantasy 5/Daily 3/Daily 4/SL/Daily Derby and Mega Millions didn't generate in winning the big jackpot.

One who loses today, wins big tomorrow BIG WINNER IN 2012

Hi Slick Nick, nice that you got something back. How big is your static set?

A big part of my lottery fun, is tweaking numbers around. I get nervous if I let a static set ride too long.

Persistence may pay off, but it is very slow and repetitive!! Lately, I've played my same Fantasy 5/Daily 3/Daily 4/SL/Daily Derby and Mega Millions for too long now, with very low payoffs . Yes, a small win is a win including free replays, which by the way for some unknown reason I keep winning all the time. The CA Lottery states to play responsible but they aren't seriously allowing me to win resonsible by letting me miss winning a large payoff by one digit. Last Friday, I could have won $1,20...

been playing the same #set in jc 5 for over 10 years, most ever won was $ 542.00.

now i feel locked in like i have to much invested in those nos. to quit.

so i can only hope persistence pays off.

and after they do i'll switch to qp.

OMG! So I am not the only one this happens too! A few months ago, my husband didn't play his Fantasy 5 numbers because he thought I didn't have cash on me. Well, do I even need to tell you that the numbers came out that night? I swear, I had a stomach virus for about 24hrs after that.

All your payoffs are different than the Ohio Lottery Pick-3 game and 50 cents on a Pick-4 double plays $200.

What lottery do you play in Ohio?

Wager Type Odds .50 Wager $1 Wager

Straight 1 in 1,000 Pay $250 $500

6-Way Wheel (6 individual straight wagers) 6 in 1,000 Pay $250 $500

3-Way Wheel (3 individual straight wagers) 3 in 1,000 Pay $250 $500

6-Way Box 1 in 167 Pay $41.50 $83

3-Way Box 1 in 333 Pay $83.50 $167

Back Pair 1 in 100 Pay $25 $50

Front Pair... [ More ]

Really for a Box number? for a double in Ohio P. 3 is for 50 cents $82.50 Pic 4 double is for 50 cents is $100.00 that is great for a box. for a str8 and Box .50 it is 250.00 plus $82.50 for a double number. You are so right persistence to pay off.

Well persistence wouldn't have payed off in this case, Illinois Pick 3.

I like the number 500 and it's one of the few numbers I play straight instead of straight box.

It hit the evening draw the day after Thanksgiving, but look at the previous hit:

11/25/2011

Evening Draw 5-0-0

8/24/2006

Evening Draw 5-0-0

I didn't play it that night but two nights before.

Almost five years ago. That's why I don't pound a number or play until it hits .

There's a set of numbers... [ More ]

theres an online site i get free pick 4 game on ; the prize is only $20 , not the 5000 or so you expect, but it is free.

i was thinking what numbers to play and looked at my account and had a balance of 666, and for min just a small second or 2 I thought maybe ill play 666 tonight. i get to play 7 picks ,so maybe ill play 1666, 2666, 3666... etc.

anyhow i never did go with the 666 plan , but that draw 8666 came up

There isn't a lottery game out here, where I haven't heard someone say they forgot to play there numbers and they jumped. Alls it takes is one time..

Very true. 3/5 of my #s came out last night on Fantasy 5 here in FL 3-9-11 and I didnt play. The last 2 were fairly close to the 4th 5th #s I play as well

It wldnt have been a jackpot win for me, but at least it was close. I wld have been very pissed off if my #s came in exactly

That's right!! This happened with me last night when MDSL brought out 708 straight which I persistently play, until last night....

That's right, there have been horror stories told here about what happens when you stop playing your regular numbers.

Seems like it never fails, they come in as soon as you stop.

Persistence pays!!

Slick Nick — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 12:15:45 GMT

If you have a set of numbers you play in the larger games, don't change. I have one set of Take 5 numbers I play always. Last night I caught 3 of the numbers. Not a big payoff, but it was a win.
