How does a lottery digit/number become a winning digit/number??

In other words, the digit/numbers closest to the machine's escape exit when the gate is opened during a drawing are crowned winners.

It's not nearly that simple. Every ball has momentum, and needs to be deflected in order to escape through the exit unless the momentum is already carrying it straight towards the opening. If momentum is already carrying a ball directly toward the exit it has to not be deflected before escaping. Because of the mixing, the momentum of any particular ball changes... [ More ]

I'm not sure what the question was.

But yes, the balls were drawn randomly that way. Yes, by chance.

I found this at the Tx Lottery Web Site:

Ball Number Number of Times Drawn

0 140

1 134

2 147

3 141

4 151

5 122

6 139

7 148

8 159

9 135

-----------------

Ball Number Number of Times Drawn

0 144

1 132

2 137

3 133

4 145

5 137

6 143

7 142

8 142

9 161

-------------------------------

Based only on that:

Would the answer be by Statistical chance or not?

It seems to me that it shows that.

Right, the odds per number played are known. But I was referring to somebody's system.

If playing one pick3 has odds of 1:1000 of hitting then s system playing 15 pick3 have odds of 15:1000 of hitting, what's so hard to figure about that

Right, the odds per number played are known. But I was referring to somebody's system.

For example if your system has you playing 15 Pick3 numbers at a time for Exact, isn't it good to know that

your odds went from 1 in 1,000 down to 1 in 67?

I was referring to the comment that the math doesn't matter as long as the objective is reached. And I'm trying to say that a

little bit of math is ok (such as understanding odds), and it might even help to reach the objective.... [ More ]

Bobby- Don't stress it- the winning number/ digit of a lottery is similar to a female. Don't try and understand them, they can be pretty complicated. Just love them Man, love them. Same with the lottery, don't try and understand it- just play it.The great thing about both is that you just might get lucky..

Check your play slips, the odds are usually posted somewhere on them.

Interesting question, part of me thinks it has to do with quantum theory (ala Schrodinger's cat) and the actual observation of the event (winning number vs. non-winning number). That's the part of me that tends to over-think things. The other part of me feels like 'whatever works dude!' In other words, if every time you did X, you won on a Tuesday, and you couldn't really figure out a causal relationship betwen X and winning would it bother you too much to do X in order to win, or would you be p...

I think the math should also be expained, at least a little bit. Or at least the odds of winning.

shouldn't the odds be known

If you play the game of lottery, you have to have a STRATEGY, whether it's a particular system, or Quick Picks, or your favorite numbers, or whatever ... Everyone's Objective is the SAME - to WIN $$$ !!!

Understanding the Math really doesn't matter, as long as the Math works, and the objective $$$ is achieved.

Hi bobby,

Haven't seen you around in a while.

I think you hit the nail on the head.

Playing Daily 4 I like to use the 1-up system, sometimes the mirrored numbers. I'll take the first number drawn for the month and 1-up that number for the rest of the month. I get a hit once in a while. The jackpot games, just random numbers and hope.

Good luck

How does a lottery digit/number become a winning digit/number??

After reading hundreds of posts, I often wonder if lottery players really know how a lottery digit/number becomes a winning digit/number.

I watch the Texas lottery drawings 4 times per day.

Different machines and ball sets are used, but the question remains - how are winning digits/numbers determined.

Best answer I can come up with is a digit/number becomes a winner by chance. In other words, the digit/numbers closest to

the machine's escape exit when the gate is opened during a draw... [ More ]
